Abstract
This paper develops a dynamic agent-based model for rural urban
migration, based on the previous relevant works. The model conforms to
the typical dynamic linear multi-agent systems model concerned
extensively in systems science, in which the communication network is
formulated as a digraph. Simulations reveal that consensus of certain
variable could be harmful to the overall stability and should be
avoided. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
