A new archetype, The Tyranny of Small Steps (TYST) has been observed. Explained through a system dynamics perspective, the archetypical behaviour TYST is an unwanted change to a system through a series of small activities that may be independent from one another. These activities are small enough not to be detected by the ‘surveillance’ within the system, but significant enough to encroach upon the “tolerance” zone of the system and compromise the integrity of the system. TYST is an unintentional process that is experienced within the system and made possible by the lack of transparency between an overarching level and a local level where the encroachment is taking place.

Just a learning example

A spatially aware, agent based model of the spread of fear in a population through local contagion. Modified from a simple disease model. There are three states people can take based on: susceptible (Potentially Fearful), infected (Afraid), and recovered (Confident).

An implementation of the classic Game of Life using agent based modeling.

Rules:

• A live cell with less than two alive neighbors dies.
• A live cell with more than three alive neighbors dies.
• A dead cell with three neighbors becomes alive.

A random walk demonstration using an ABM. As individuals drink more they become more intoxicated and their walk becomes more random. And when they drink to much it finally kills them.
