Infection in a Confined Space using an Agent-Based Model

Multiagent Systems 2021-05-24 v1

Abstract

This study examined a simulated confined space modelled as a hospital waiting area, where people who could have underlying conditions congregate and mix with potentially infectious individuals. It further investigated the impact of the volume of the waiting area, the number of people in the room, the placement of them as well as their weight. The simulation is an agent-based model (ABM).
