Agent-Based Computational Economics

by Leigh Tesfatsion - ISU Economics Working Paper Number 1 , 2002
"... Abstract: Agent-based computational economics (ACE) is the computational study of economies modeled as evolving systems of autonomous interacting agents. Starting from initial conditions, specified by the modeler, the computational economy evolves over time as its constituent agents repeatedly inter ..."

Agent-based computing: Promise and perils

by Nicholas R. Jennings - In 16th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI-99 , 1999
"... Agent-based computing represents an exciting new syn-thesis both for Artificial Intelligence (AI) and, more generally, Computer Science. It has the potential to sig-nificantly improve the theory and the practice of model-ling, designing, and implementing complex systems. Yet, to date, there has been ..."

Modeling Civil Violence: An Agent-Based Computational Approach

by Joshua M. Epstein, John D. Steinbruner, Miles T. Parker - Proceedings of the National Academy of Science of the U.S.A. 99, Suppl. 3: 7243–7250. Available online , 2002
"... This working paper presents an agent-based computational model of civil violence. We present two variants of the Civil Violence Model. In the first, a central authority seeks to suppress decentralized rebellion. In the second, a central authority seeks to suppress communal violence between two warri ..."

Agent-based computational models and generative social science

by Joshua M. Epstein - Complexity , 1999
"... This article argues that the agent-based computational model permits a distinctive approach to social science for which the term “generative ” is suitable. In defending this terminology, features distinguishing the approach from both “inductive ” and “deductive ” science are given. Then, the followi ..."

Fault tolerance in agent-based computing systems

by Shivakant Mishra, Yanjun Huang - In Proceedings of the 13th ISCA International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Computing Systems, Las Vegas, NV , 2000
"... Abstract This paper systematically studies the faulttolerance issue in mobile, agent-based computing systems. A set of requirements for agent fault-tolerance is proposed. Based on these requirements, three protocols for tolerating node and communication failures are presented. These protocols can be ..."
