Summary
This PR introduces a new example model that demonstrates agent-based simulation of a system driven by queueing, prioritisation, and constrained resources.
The model focuses on interactions where agents compete for limited resources, requiring structured handling of waiting queues and scheduling policies.
Motivation
Many real-world systems are governed by resource constraints and service processes rather than purely spatial interactions. Examples include transportation systems, healthcare workflows, and service operations.
This example highlights how such systems can be modeled within Mesa, and surfaces common patterns such as:
Key Features
Purpose
The goal of this model is to demonstrate how Mesa can be used for non-spatial, operational simulations where:
Example Use Cases
The patterns demonstrated in this model generalise to a wide range of domains, including:
Impact
This example expands the range of scenarios illustrated in Mesa by:
Notes
This model is intended as an example and starting point for further extensions, including:
