ALIFE VI Workshop on Agent-Based Economics 
Friday, June 26     

Agent-based economics is a nascent scientific field at the intersection of
economics, mathematics, computer science, artificial life, and artificial
intelligence. Agent-based economists study several fundamental questions: What
types of macro economic behavior emerge from local interactions amongst
agents? What macro economic behavior can be explained by local interactions?
Can agents with bounded rationality achieve optimal equilibrium? Agent-based
economists are interested in understanding the dynamics of economic systems as
well as their equilibriums. Several research centers, including the Brookings
Institution and the Santa Fe Institute, have begun to foster research in this
area and there is now a growing body of research on agent-based economics. 

This workshop will bring together scientists who are interested in agent-based
economics and will invite them to give 15 to 30 minute presentations on their
work. If you would like to attend this workshop, please send a brief
description of your research to Michael de la Maza (address@hidden).

Date: Friday, June 26
Time: 9am-12 noon.
