Based on the agent theory of modeling and simulation, this paper proposes a flexible, scalable and cross-domain framework for simulating complex adaptive systems. After discussion on the design of FFCAS, applications on FFCAS in different complex domains, and empirical results are presented as experimental validation.</p></div></div><div class="col-aside" id="kb-nav--aside" style="border: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; outline: 0px; display: inline; width: 240px; float: left; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><div class="cover" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; outline: 0px; display: block;"><div class="look-inside cover-image-animate" style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; outline: 0px; display: block; min-height: 188px; position: relative; max-width: 170px; text-decoration: none;"> </div></div></div>
