A Bibliometric Study of Agent Based Modeling Literature in SSCI Database
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of international literature using Agent-Based Modeling (ABM) in SSCI during 1997-2008. The results of this study reveal the fact that the growth of international literature using ABM is still well perceived. Most of the literature came from various institutions in USA. However, non-American authors including those from Taiwan, Italy, Netherlands, and England still achieve top 4 individual author productivity ranks. According to Bradford’s Law, eight core journals in ABM are identified and analyzed. Moreover, the frequency distributions of the author productivity match the generalized Lotca’s Law. Aapplications of ABM are mainly found in the fields of social science/interdisciplinary studies, economics, and environmental studies.
