与世界上许多国家一样，荷兰的能源系统起源于集中市场和可再生能源发电的时代。这种情况现在正在迅速改变——能源市场开放竞争，家庭通常使用可再生能源发电，而且越来越多的人转向使用电动汽车。在这些变化发生的同时，电力供应必须保持稳定且经济适用。
Sjors Hijgenaar 对这些发展提出了与变化本身一样激进的回应——分散智能电网并且本地能源直接交易。在他的分析中，一个基于智能体的荷兰社区仿真模型证明了该建议在效率和可靠性方面的优势。这是如何运作的？

What are the benefits of dynamic ride sharing and autonomous taxis?
Let your car drive around as a taxi when you are not using it says Tesla. While Waymo offers taxis without drivers to residents of Phoenix, AZ. Seemingly significant changes to the ways we make journeys are already underway and big business is involved, but what will their impact on our surroundings be?

Crowd safety at Hajj – Simulation modeling
Emergency evacuation planning for mass gatherings is essential public safety and security work for authorities and can help save lives. Imran Mahmood and Muhammad Haris of the National University of Sciences and Technology, Pakistan, and Hessam Sarjoughian of Arizona State University, USA, have used an AnyLogic based crowd simulation and analysis framework to analyze emergency evacuation strategies for one of the world’s greatest mass gatherings: Hajj.
A simulated city – learning by example
UDES is designed for teaching the complex nature of city interactions, and also a method for representing them – agent based simulation.
It is an excellent example model, accessible to all, with both interactive and customizable elements. Let’s take a closer look…

Getting old – virtually! Modeling the mechanisms of aging.
Timothy E. Hoffman, Katherine J. Barnett, Lyle Wallis and William H. Hanneman of the Center for Environmental Medicine, Colorado State University are to be published in the October 2017 issue of the peer-reviewed Aging Cell journal of the Anatomical Society.
The aim of their investigation was to assess recent significant and unusual research observations regarding aging.
AnyLogic Featured in Rail Application Text Book
The Handbook of Operations Research Applications at Railroads (International Series in Operations Research & Management Science) is the first book to offer a complete spectrum of the role that operations research has played and can play in the improvement of North American freight railroads. It explores how decisions are made at railroads, contains examples of the mathematical programming formulations to the complex problems, and provides insights into real-world applications. AnyLogic is featured in two chapters: Simulation of Line of Road Operations and Terminal Simulation written by Roger Baugher, who has worked to apply Operations Research tools to railroads for over 40 years as both a railroad employee and consultant (B. Patty, Preface). Roger was instrumental in the development of Algorithmic Blocking and Classification (ABC) while at Norfolk Southern, was the first recipient of the Railroad Applications Special Interest Group (RASIG) Award for his contributions to OR in the railroad industry and is a Franz Edelman Laureate. In addition to Norfolk Southern, Roger Baugher applied his understanding of network optimization approaches to various forms of the transportation organizations, such as BNSF, American Airlines, Pacer Stacktrain, Conrail where he played an integral part in developing the Conrail Network Analysis Model (CNAM)

Why do universities value AnyLogic?
Today, modeling and simulation are in high demand. Surprisingly, there are few universities that have programs designed for them. In 2000, Old Dominion University was the first in the United States to offer a Ph.D. in modeling and simulation. Now it is the only university in the country with an undergraduate program. Old Dominion has extensive experience in teaching simulation, and Old Dominion chooses AnyLogic.
