Model of Context Switching with Segregation (1.1.0)
In the context switching model, a society of agents embedded in multiple social relations, engages in a simple abstract game: the consensus game. Each agent has to choose towards one of two
possible choices which are basically arbitrary. The objective of the game is to
reach a global consensus, but the particular choice that gets collectively selected
is irrelevant.
The agents switch contexts with a switching probability, in addition, agents avoid undesired
neighbourhoods with a mechanism of segregation with a tunable tolerance threshold.
