Complex Network and Clustering in Standard Diffusion:Research Based Upon Agent-based Computational Economics
This paper analyses the agent clustering in standard diffusion using agent-based computational modeling method.This paper also modifies clustering coefficient formula to measure if there is clustering phenomenon in standard diffusion process.The simulation result shows that clustering is a salient feature in the standard diffusion process.It also reveals that while all agents were making decision to use some standard,the clustering phenomenon is very always obvious.This paper reveals the agent clustering and coexistence phenomenon in standard diffusion process,it also explains the two-way relationship between micro-agent behavior and macro-clustering measure in social complex systems.
In the overall ownership cost of enterprise system, the maintenance cost consists of a major percentage. During the lifetime of an enterprise system, process customization is the most frequent maintenance efforts. However, current processing method has limited scalability and efficiency. In this case study, we explained how a scalable and efficient customization processing method was implemented. This method used the carbon emission trading mechanism to facilitate the cost benefit analysis of customization request. It also used distributed processing principle to improve the overall processing efficiency. Feedback from a pilot implementation in a large manufacturer included.
