An Overview of the MABS and RPG Techniques in Natural Resources Management

The natural resources management area is substantial to the development of the all countries, because the resources are more scarce and the number of people bigger. For these reasons, they are more difficult to manage. In this way, find good techniques to learn how to treat with these resources in a sustainable way is an important activity of sciences. Specifically in computer science, several works have been used MABS (multi-agent-based simulation) and RPG (role-playing games) techniques to test and better understand this area. In this paper, we present an overview of this area and some works related, focusing in our researches.
