Sociophysics simulations
Check if we need one Introduction: Physicists since a long time have tried to apply their skills to fields outside physics, with more or less success. Econophysics is a big fashion at present, though partly based on the wrong belief that economists did not make empirical observations of financial markets or made no Monte Carlo simulations where rational judgement is replaced by random decisions...
متن کاملSociophysics Simulations I: Language Competition
Using a bit-string model similar to biological simulations, the competition between different languages is simulated both without and with spatial structure. We compare our agent-based work with differential equations and the competing bit-string model of Kosmidis et al.
متن کاملSociophysics Simulations II: Opinion Dynamics
Individuals have opinions but can change them under the influence of others. The recent models of Sznajd (missionaries), of Deffuant et al. (negotiators), and of Krause and Hegselmann (opportunists) are reviewed here, while the voter and Ising models, Galam’s majority rule and the Axelrod multicultural model were dealt with by other lecturers at this 8th Granada Seminar.
متن کاملSociophysics Simulations III: Retirement Demography
This third part of the lecture series deals with the question: Who will pay for your retirement? For Western Europe the answer may be " nobody " , but for Algeria the demography looks more promising.
متن کاملSociophysics Simulations of Technology Adoption and Consumer Behavior
This paper makes use of spatial agent-based simulation techniques inspired by theoretical condensed matter physics. These techniques form part of ‘sociophysics’ an approach that has emerged slowly, but with increasing speed, over the last thirty years. This paper reports on two studies by the authors relating to the adoption of new technologies by a stylized virtual community comprising thousan...
