Abstract: In this chapter we focus on the commonalities and differences between agent-based and dynamic microsimulation analytical approaches. Starting from a shared history, we discuss how the two literatures quickly diverged. Discussion concludes with evidence of some recent convergence between agent-based and dynamic microsimulation methods, and emerging opportunities for mutual reinforcement of the two methodologies.
