Abstract:
In a given environment, agents interact with each other, imitating, communicating, exchanging, and competing. Based on these heterogeneous modalities of interaction, a variety of socialities may emerge including language and communication, identities, economies, and cultures. This book addresses the emergence of societal phenomena in the interactions of systems of agents. Comprising chapters by numerous international authors, this reference book goes beyond describing the next generation of multi-agent systems in simulations and system engineering and analyzes existing systems to stimulate the development of new ones.
