Title
Simulation of Resource Acquisition by e-Sourcing Clusters Using NetLogo Environment
Abstract
In the last few years many business clusters have been formed. Thanks to the geographical proximity as well as close cooperation companies are able to gain a lot of benefits that they would not reach if they worked on their own. The ICT has given a possibility to go beyond traditional cooperation and has allowed various geographically spread companies to create alliances. Especially the agent technology seems very promising. The software agents are able to efficiently support e-marketplaces, including partners who offer one another the best cooperation conditions at a given time[1][2]. The main contribution of this paper is a verification of the improved e-sourcing strategy which was presented in [3]. Simulations of this model have been carried out in the NetLogo environment. It has been shown that the usage of e-sourcing cluster can inconceivably boost up the process of resource acquisition.
