On agent-based modeling and computational social science
In the first part of the paper, the field of agent-based modeling (ABM) is discussed focusing
on the role of generative theories, aiming at explaining phenomena by growing them. After a …

Evolutionary game theory and evolutionary economics: are they different species?
GM Hodgson, K Huang - Journal of evolutionary economics, 2012 - Springer
Evolutionary game theory and evolutionary economics seem to inhabit different academic

Using a hybrid simulation model to assess the impacts of combined COVID-19 containment measures in a high-speed train station
In this study, we present a hybrid agent-based model (ABM) and discrete event simulation
(DES) framework where ABM captures the spread dynamics of COVID-19 via asymptomatic …

Getting the best of both worlds? Develo** complementary equation-based and agent-based models
We argue that building agent-based and equation-based versions of the same theoretical
model is a fruitful way of gaining insights into real-world phenomena. We use the …
