_Simulation _______________________________________ From the simulation as a (assisted, opaque) mental experiment … _______________________________________ Wild@Ace, Torino
molecular interaction and protein folding of an alpha helix using distributed dynamics From www.stanford.edu/group/pandegroup/folding/ • Folding the smallest protein one could imagine: a single alpha helix. • A complex structure generated from elemetary rules about inter-molecular interaction Wild@Ace, Torino
_Agent-based choice _______________________________________ … to ACE, Agent-based Computational Economics and, more generally, ABS, Agent-based Simulation _______________________________________ Wild@Ace, Torino
From www.icosystem.com/ interaction among individuals pt pt looks at A as its defender at to B as an offender or pt has to defend A from B A B action Wild@Ace, Torino
simulation and agent models Social simulation as a computer based way to execute complex mental experiments, but also as a via to represent the complexity of real world simulation = agent-based models Wild@Ace, Torino
_How to use agents _______________________________________ How to use agents in simulation models: a radical view _______________________________________ Wild@Ace, Torino
a radical view The radical characterization of an ABM must be found into the possibility of real –direct or indirect – interaction amid the agents, instead of modeling it in a simplified way with aggregate simultaneous equations Wild@Ace, Torino
_A general structure _______________________________________ A general structure for agent-based simulation models _______________________________________ Wild@Ace, Torino
