Move to agent-based approach

[cvanelteren]

Currently the adjacency matrix is the agent stack. The bonabeau model has agent moving around on a finite space. In the current implementation the whole grid is assumed to be an agent. A different update scheme needs to be implemented for higher efficiency.

Suggestions

Keep track of agent, and update only these.

• pros:
  • more flexibility in agent dynamics
  • higher efficiency in sparse systems
• cons:
  • basically redesign from the ground up -> maybe better for different language too due to jump from memoryviews to other data structures, prolly structs.

Keep as is and deal with inefficiency

• pros: no rewrite
• cons: sparse agents yield to high inefficiency
