 Hong and Page (2004) use a simple model to derive their famous “Diversity Trumps Ability” result. Agents face a problem modeled as a ring with some number of locations on it. Each location is associated with a number representing its goodness as a solution. An agent, in the model, is represented as a finite set of “heuristics”, or integers, such as ⟨3, 7, 10⟩. Such an agent is placed on the ring, and can see the locations 3, 7, and 10 spots ahead of their current position. They then move to whichever has the highest number until they reach a location where they can no longer improve their score.
