Abstract
The goal of the paper is to create a model for investigating the character of relationships between the freedom and restrictions in the terrorism context, in order to find out how sensitive is the probability of the population survival to small changes in these two parameters. A model for simulating relationships between access to resources and possibility of termination of the population is presented. The model comprises an agent world, its properties, interactions, and a world life cycle algorithm. As the “right” properties and interactions of the model are a question of experimentation, the model is introduced in two steps: a general model and a specific sub-model. Preliminary analysis of results received on a sub-model implementation demonstrate that in certain cases the relationship between the level of access to information and the overall aggressiveness value implying the end of population may has a stepwise character.
