Σύνοψη	Agent-based discrete-event simulation (AB-DES) is a hybrid modeling paradigm that couples autonomous agent behavior with an event-driven execution engine. It captures the decision-making heterogeneity of individual entities while maintaining the precise, time-stamped flow control of discrete-event simulation, making it suitable for complex systems where both individual agency and process sequencing matter.	Agent-based modeling (ABM) is a computational simulation method, formalized through the work of Thomas Schelling and Robert Axelrod in the 1970s–1990s, that simulates the behavior of complex systems by specifying and running autonomous agents — individuals, firms, cells, or any bounded entity — whose local interactions with each other and with their environment collectively produce global, system-level patterns that could not be predicted from any single agent's rules alone.
