Agent-Based Approaches in Economics and Social Complex Systems IX

Post-Proceedings of The AESCS International Workshop 2015

  • Collects the most up-to-date information, applications, and advanced techniques in the development of agent-based methodology, modeling, and simulation in interdisciplinary social science
  • Covers real cases of problems drawn from diverse topics and areas to help scientists and practitioners attain the skills to design, implement, and analyze agent-based models
  • Fills the gap between descriptions of methodology and best practices for the design and development of agent-based simulation

Part of the book series: Agent-Based Social Systems (ABSS, volume 15)

About this book

This book includes many cases that provide new perspectives in developing agent-based modeling and simulation. The real problems are complex, and sophisticated methodology is needed to handle them. Agent-based modeling and simulation is one methodology that provides a bottom-up experimental approach applicable to social sciences such as economics, management, sociology, and politics as well as some engineering fields dealing with social activities. However, to improve the applicability of agent-based modeling and simulation methods, a new perspective is needed. In this book, that new perspective is developed and utilized to deal with many cases of real-world problems such as the supply chain, land use and land cover, transportation, health, services, economics, and social problems. The cases are selected from papers presented at the Ninth International Workshop on Agent-Based Approaches in Economic and Social Complex Systems held in Bali, Indonesia, in 2015. At the workshop, 29 reviewed full papers were presented, and of those, 16 were selected to be included in this volume.
