The NetLego Experiment

Model Taken for Experiment: Virus on a Network ( NetLogo Models Library : Sample Models/Networks) Stonedahl, F. and Wilensky, U. (2008).  NetLogo Virus on a Network model.  http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/models/VirusonaNetwork.  Center for Connected Learning and Computer-Based Modeling, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL. §   Tool Used:  NetLogo 5.2.1 (NetLego: * Wilensky, U. (1999). NetLogo. http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/. Center for Connected Learning and Computer-Based Modeling, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL.)
