Agent-based Modeling as a Bridge Between Disciplines
Robert Axelrod
Chapter 33 in Handbook of Computational Economics, 2006, vol. 2, pp 1565-1584 from Elsevier
Abstract:
Using the author's own experiences, this chapter shows how agent-based modeling (ABM) can address research questions common to many disciplines, facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration, provide a useful multidisciplinary tool when the math is intractable, and reveal unity across disciplines. While ABM can be a hard sell, convergence within the agent-based community can enhance the interdisciplinary value of the methodology.
