Concepts for an agent-based framework for interdisciplinary social science simulation
نویسنده
چکیده
1.1 There are a variety of different requirements and qualifications of users applying simulation as a research method in the social sciences. Experience gained with users of the simulation system MIMOSE (Möhring 1996) and discussions in interdisciplinary workshops (Gilbert 1996 and Gilbert et al. 1997) suggest that developing a unified modelling and simulation language for the social sciences is an unrealistic aim.

In knowledge-based economy, knowledge has a public good and non-rivalry nature. Firms build their own knowledge stock not only by means of internal R&D and collaboration with partners, but also by means of previously spilled over knowledge of other firms and public research laboratories (such as universities). Firms based on their absorptive capacity, and level of intra-industry and extra-indus...
متن کاملA review of agent-based modeling (ABM) concepts and some of its main applications in management science
We live in a very complex world where we face complex phenomena such as social norms and new technologies. To deal with such phenomena, social scientists often use reductionism approach where they reduce them to some lower-lever variables and model the relationships among them through a scheme of equations. This approach that is called equation based modeling (EBM) has some basic weaknesses in ...
