Integrating CAFCA—A Lens to Interpret Social Phenomena

, 2021
As social context becomes a more central concept for social simulation, different approaches to context have been developed. We discuss four of these with the help of an overall Contextual Action Framework for Computational Agents (CAFCA).

Bootstrapping Knowledge About Social Phenomena Using Simulation Models [PDF]

, 2010
There are considerable difficulties in the way of the development of useful and reliable simulation models of social phenomena, including that any simulation necessarily includes many assumptions that are not directly supported by evidence. Despite these

A Methodology for Complex Social Simulations [PDF]

Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation, 2010
Social simulation — an emerging field of computational social science — has progressed from simple toy models to increasingly realistic models of complex social systems, such as agent-based models where heterogeneous agents interact with changing natural or artificial environments.
