A framework for Agent Based Social Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Our research centres in the application of computational modelling to social sciences, more concretely, computer simulation of social phenomena. When these programs are represented specifically like agents we refer to them as Agent Based Modelling (ABM). The executions of these agent-based computational models are known as Agent-Based Social Simulations (ABSS). There are various libraries for developing agent-based simulation systems but they require modellers to have a good working knowledge of the programming language that they are using. Our purpose is twofold: to ease agent-based simulation providing customizable tools for modellers with basic programming knowledge, and supporting the execution of scalable models.

Simulation of The Impact of Income Distribution on Social Unrest Using Agent-based Modeling Approach
Abstract Poverty and various forms of inequality, including class, gender, racial, and ethnic inequalities, are caused by imbalances of power relations and make society prone to social instability and unrest; Inequalities that are by-products of the growing power imbalances between the rich and the poor. The problems of poverty and inequality are inextricably linked to powerful economic and p...

Many people die each year due to smoking. Social pressures, such as peer pressure, which are manifested in one's interactions with his/her peers, are from very effective factors in people's tendency to smoke. In this research, it was attempted to study and analyze peer pressure in smoking and its impact on some of the welfare indicators including mortality number due to starvation, wealth avera...

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...
