Abstract: |
This paper describes the
derivation of a software architecture (and its
implementation called EMIL-S) from a logical normative agent architecture
(called EMIL-A). After a short introduction into the theoretical background
of agent-based normative social simulation, the paper focuses on intra-agent
structures and processes. The pivotal element in this regard is a rule- based
agent design with a corresponding “generalised
intra-agent process” that involves decision making and learning capabilities.
The resulting simulation dynamics are illustrated afterwards by means of an
application sample where agents contribute to a Wikipedia community by
writing, editing and discussing articles. Findings and material presented in
the paper are part of the results achieved in the FP6 project EMIL (EMergence In the Loop: Simulating the two-way dynamics of
norm innovation). |
