Overview

Agent-based computational modeling with its intrinsic multidisciplinary approach is gaining increasing recognition as a problem-solving tool in the social sciences, particularly in economics, business, and finance. The methodology is now used widely to numerically compute analytical models and test them for departures from theoretical assumptions. The methodology also provides stand-alone simulation models for problems that are analytically intractable. This volume is devoted to recent contributions to the field of agent-based computational modeling stemming from both the social sciences and computer sciences. It presents applications of methodologies and tools, focusing strongly on the uses, requirements, and constraints of agent-based models employed by social scientists. Topics include agent-based macroeconomics, the emergence of norms and conventions, the dynamics of social and economic networks, and behavioral models in financial markets.
