Abstract

Since the beginnings of this millennium, there has been a burgeoning interest in the use of simulation methods for the study of crime. In a remarkably short period, crime researchers using simulations have applied the method in a wide variety of ways. Let us look at some of the first simulations—four simulations developed by three different teams working independently—to describe this diversity.
