A Simulation Study on Spread of Disease and Control Measures in Closed Population Using ABM

Abstract

An infectious disease can cause a detrimental effect on national security. A group such as the military called a “closed population”, which is a subset of the general population but has many distinct characteristics, must survive even in the event of a pandemic. Hence, it requires its own distinct solution during a pandemic. In this study, we investigate a simulation analysis for implementing an agent-based model that reflects the characteristics of agents and the environment in a closed population and finds effective control measures for making the closed population functional in the course of disease spreading.
