Abstract
Team 7 developed an Agent Based Model in NetLogo 4.1 to study the impacts of the placement and size of resource dispensaries and processing centers on the successfulness of a Humanitarian Relief Mission. The model tracks the number of people in need of resources, time to receive resources, crime incidents, and population migration. The model incorporates social attributes, ethnicity, and people’s resource desires.
