Self-organization simulation and output analysis

A three-layer self-organization simulation framework is introduced, which could be regarded as the basic idea to simulate self-organizing behavior. Then, a complete self-organization simulation model is introduced in detail, which is enhanced by both machine learning and evolutionary algorithms from the AI area. To give an application perspective, a prototype system, called “SOS-PS” (Self-Organization Simulation in Partnership Selection) is proposed. Using the self-organization simulation model, the prototype system can give valuable decision support for complex partnership selection problems in virtual enterprises
