The entry describes the basic agent-based computational economics methodology and provides a brief review of the literature.

This study outlines the main objectives and defining characteristics of agent-based computational economics (ACE), the computational study of economies modeled as evolving systems of autonomous interacting agents. Similarities and distinctions between ACE and artificial life research are...

Agent-based Computational Economics (ACE) is the computational study of economic processes modeled as dynamic systems of interacting agents. This essay discusses the potential use of ACE modeling tools for the study of macroeconomic systems. Points are illustrated using an ACE model of a...

This handbook comprises 16 chapters surveying agent-based computational economics research, 6 shorter essays providing personal perspectives, and a "getting started" guide for newcomers to agent-based modeling in the social sciences. Research topics covered include: learning representations for...

A brief overview of agent-based computational economics is given, followed by synopses of the nine contributions included in this special issue. Related work can be accessed at http://www.econ.iastate.edu/tesfatsi/ace.htm

Agent-based computational economics (ACE) is roughly defined as the computational study of economies modeled as evolving decentralized systems of autonomous interacting agents. A key focus of ACE research is understanding how global regularities arise from the bottom up, through the repeated...

A brief overview of agent-based computational economics (ACE) is given, followed by a synopsis of the articles included in this special issue on ACE and in a companion special issue on ACE scheduled to appear in Computational Economics.

This chapter explores the potential advantages and disadvantages of Agent-based Computational Economics (ACE) for the study of economic systems. General points are concretely illustrated using an ACE model of a two-sector decentralized market economy. Six issues are highlighted: Constructive...

An overview of recent work in agent-based computational economics (ACE) is provided, with a stress on the research areas highlighted in the National Academy of Sciences Sackler Colloquium held at the Beckman Center, Irvine, California, in October 2001. Extensive annotated pointers to ACE...
