Összefoglaló	Agent-Based Cellular Automata (ABCA) is a hybrid simulation framework that integrates the local transition rules of cellular automata with the autonomous behavioral logic of agent-based modeling. Cells in a spatial grid both evolve according to neighborhood rules and host agents that perceive, decide, and act, enabling the study of complex spatial phenomena such as land-use change, disease spread, crowd dynamics, and ecosystem evolution.	Discrete-Event Simulation (DES) is a computational modeling paradigm in which the state of a system changes only at a countable sequence of points in time — the events. Between events nothing changes, so the simulation clock jumps directly from one event to the next. Formalized through the foundational textbooks of Banks, Carson, Nelson and Nicol and of Law in the 1960s–2000s, DES has become the standard tool for analyzing queuing systems, healthcare patient flows, manufacturing lines, and logistics networks where entities move through resources over time.
