摘要

Hospital Emergency Departments (EDs) are one of the more complex units of the healthcare system, requiring coordination of human and technical resources for managing situations effectively. This article establishes the basic principles to design primitives of an Agent-Based Modeling and Simulation (ABMS) modular system, inspired by the modularity of Lego  blocks, which allows the creation of computational models that can be employed as Decision Support Systems (DSS). The ABMS modular system has shifted from a monolithic approach to an adjustable system. This means that the system allows the description of the metasystem and agent box used to build the computational models (simulator) that, used as DSS, can help EDs managers to achieve the highest possible level of service quality, given the available resources.
