Controlling the collective behavior in the agent-based herding model — •Aleksejus Kononovicius and Vygintas Gontis — Institute of Theoretical Physics and Astronomy, Vilnius University, Vilnius, Lithuania

The characteristic feature of the complex socio-economic systems is a tight coupling of the constituent parts. We can see them as generalized agents, which are tightly coupled with other agents via the herding interactions. Previous empirical research, from a point of view of the behavioral biology and sociology (see recent papers by Jens Krauze), has shown that one can use the tight coupling to control the collective behavior of large groups of individuals. In this contribution we approach the same problem from an agent-based modelling point of view. Namely, we study the dynamics of the agent-based herding model in which certain agents are controlled externally.
