תקציר	The Agent-Based Markov Model (ABMM) is a hybrid simulation framework that embeds Markov chain state-transition logic inside individual autonomous agents. Each agent independently samples its next state from a probability transition matrix, enabling the model to capture both micro-level heterogeneity across agents and the tractable probabilistic structure of Markov chains. The approach is widely used in health economics, epidemiology, social science, and operations research.	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.
