An exploration of the implications of developments in artificial intelligence for social scientific research, which builds on the theoretical and methodological insights provided by "Simulating societies".; This book is intended for worldwide library market for social science subjects such as sociology, political science, geography, archaeology/anthropology, and significant appeal within computer science, particularly artificial intelligence. Also personal reference for researchers
The EOS project: Integrating two models of Palaeolithic social change
A previous report on the EOS project (Doran et al, 1994) described the development of a specialized software testbed, and the design, implementation and testing within it of a simple computational version of the Mellars model for the growth of unprecedented social complexity in the Upper Palaeolithic period of south-western Europe (Mellars 1985)
A model of the emergence of new political actors
How can new political actors emerge from an aggregation of smaller political actors? This chapter presents a simulation model that provides one answer. In its broadest perspective, the work can be seen as part of the study of emergent organization through “bottom-up” processes. In such “bottom-up” processes, small units interact according to locally defined rules, and the result is emergent properties of the system such as the formation of new le…
