Empirical Validation in Agent-based Models: Introduction to the Special Issue
In the last two decades, economists have become more and more aware of the importance of modelling economies as complex dynamic systems (Rosser 2004). The recent tremendous improvement in computing capabilities has increasingly made it easier to implement computational simulation models in the study of markets, industries or organizations as evolving systems composed of many heterogeneous agent...

متن کاملIntroduction to the special issue on ontologies in agent systems
It is now more than ten years since researchers in the US Knowledge Sharing Effort envisaged a future where complex systems could be built by combining knowledge and services from multiple knowledge bases and the first agent communication language, KQML, was proposed (Neches et al., 1991). This model of communication, based on speech acts, a declarative message content representation language a...
متن کاملIntroduction to the special issue on agent autonomy in groups
This special issue of the Connection Science journal features ten papers on agent autonomy. The introduction describes the motivation for the special issue and briefly overviews the contributions. The papers in this volume are revised and extended version of selected papers from a workshop that was held in July 2002, in Edmonton, Canada, in conjunction with AAAI 2002 conference. This workshop f...
متن کاملAlternative Approaches to the Empirical Validation of Agent-Based Models
This paper draws on the metaphor of a spectrum of models ranging from the most theorydriven to the most evidence-driven. The issue of concern is the practice and criteria that will be appropriate to validation of different models. In order to address this concern, two modelling approaches are investigated in some detailed — one from each end of our metaphorical spectrum. Windrum et al. (2007) (...
