Abstract
Introduction. Community, understood as a social
group at different scales such as home,
neighborhood, town, industry and city, is
responsible for the changes in the environment in
which they live. These transformations originate in
their daily decisions, product generation, lifestyle
and their interactions with the environment.
Objective. In the frame of a multidisciplinary
project, field research has been carried out in La Gabriela community in Medellin - Colombia. The
project aims to analyze agricultural practices in a
suburban environment that follows Eco-design
principles. Materials and methods. The proposal
aims to evaluate the feasibility of using the
implementation of a simulator as a design and
verification tool of agricultural practices within the
community studied. It includes the main evaluation
variables and allows statistical validation of results
with parametric variations to the processes.
Results. The simulator allows to prevent unwanted
results by predicting the system’s behavior and
permits to adjust the parameters of the model to
optimize the actions to be executed. In this paper,
the field research results and simulation scheme
will be presented. Conclusion. The systemic
vision proposes a series of principles for society,
industry and the environment in terms of
connectivity, relationships and context, which can
be verified through the simulator, focusing on
generating or modifying behaviors and processes
for the correct use of resources.
