Abstract

The invention is a highly efficient simulator that is not necessarily dependent on the number of participants—it can scale out to a mass number of participants and still run on a single very low-end computer. The simulator populates itself with individuals and, in accordance with a model of the system that comprises rules that govern the behavior of the individual participants, generates and records signals related to the activities that each participant carries out in real time to create a simulation of how the actual system performs. The recorded signals are stored in a data base, which can be mined for decision making.
