Agent-Based Simulation Models in Organization Science

none1noAgent-based simulation models can reproduce the interactions between members of an organization or between different organizations in an artificial environment where “agents” make decisions and communicate with one another. This article discusses possible applications to core issues in organization science and provides an introductory guide to simulation platforms. Agent-based modeling requires writing computer code, a skill that, if properly mastered, may turn into a career opportunity.noneG. FiorettiG. Fiorett
