 ====== Final Project ======
+[[Student pages]]
 ====Objective====
 To create an agent-based model to simulate the allocation and trading of carbon quotas. The model should be able to answer the question: How does the initial allocation of carbon quotas and the rules governing their trade influence the distribution and total release of carbon?
+====Methodology====
+You will use [[internal:CDM-S:main|CDM-S]] as the base for building the system, including the extension for modularization described {{public:cdm-krth-rjs-tech-report.pdf|here}}. Your role in using this methodology is to expand each of its steps (using this wiki) with:
+  * detailed but generalized explanations of implementation of each step, and
+  * anecdotal information based on the particular experience in the tasks related to the project's objective above.
+Additionally, you must invent a new methodology related to "unit testing" of subsets/sub-clusters of modules that tests not only their "clean room" operation but also tests their robustness against random, irrational and unpredictable behaviors in the surrounding system.
+Use this wiki to create a timeline with tasks and names; the link is [[public:i-700-abms-08-1:timeline_and_tasklist|here]].
+You must record your contributions towards this project on this wiki; the links to your individual pages will be sent  in email (access granted to only the individual and the instructors).
 ====Model====
 The model should include the following modules:
-  * Domestic government: Allocate free quotas and set rules for domestic sectors.
+  * **Domestic government**: Allocate free quotas and set rules for domestic sectors.
-  * Domestic government: Allocate free quotas and set rules for foreign sectors.
+  * **Domestic government**: Allocate free quotas and set rules for foreign sectors.
-  * Domestic sectors: Each sector produces products which require quotas as input. Can trade with domestic or foreign owners of carbon quotas according to rules set by government.
+  * **Domestic sectors**: Each sector produces products which require quotas as input. Can trade with domestic or foreign owners of carbon quotas according to rules set by government.
-  * Foreign sectors: Each sector produces products which require quotas as input. Can trade with other foreign sectors or domestic sectors according to rules set by foreign government.
+  * **Foreign sectors**: Each sector produces products which require quotas as input. Can trade with other foreign sectors or domestic sectors according to rules set by foreign government.
-  * Double auction market for carbon quotas: Intermediate for trading carbon quotas.
+  * **Double auction market** for carbon quotas: Intermediate for trading carbon quotas.

 Different simulations should be performed for all combination of government rules for trade for different quantities of freely allocated quotas.
