The writer briefly reviews the history of simulation in sociology and considers specific areas in more detail. These areas include system dynamics, cellular automata, iterated game theory, distributed artificial intelligence, neural networks, multilevel simulation, simulation of social networks and organizations, and policy-oriented tax-benefits microsimulation. To conclude, he presents an analysis of the role of statistics in simulation and the excellent potential for expanded use of simulation in sociology. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
