Abstract: Intangible cultural heritage, as one of the important
cultural resources, is currently one of the most popular points for social
scientific researchers. However, the intrinsic relationships between
stakeholders related to tourism intangible cultural heritage including
government, inheritors, enterprises, experts and tourists is hard to
determine through social scientific approaches, especially, when we need to
understand dynamic behavior. In this paper, we firstly use Breeze/ADL
(Architecture Description Language) to model the intrinsic relationship
between the stakeholders referring to tourism intangible cultural heritage.
Secondly, we use ABM (Agent-Based Model) to simulate the interactions
between stakeholders, in which path coefficient obtained from case studies
is considered as an external objective. The results show that the
environment revenue and enterprise revenue achieve optimum status when path
coefficient and environment benefit are both set as external objectives. The
results also imply that the construct stakeholder balance model of tourism
intangible cultural heritage is reasonable and effective.
Keywords: Agent-based model, Breeze/ADL, stakeholders, tourism intangible cultural heritage
