CognitionandMulti-AgentInteraction
FromCognitiveModelingtoSocialSimulation
This book explores the intersection between cognitive sciences and
social sciences. In particular, it explores the intersection between
individual cognitive modeling and modeling of multi-agent inter-
action. The two contributing fields – individual cognitive modeling
(especiallycognitivearchitectures)andmodelingofmulti-agentinter-
action(includingsocialsimulationand,tosomeextent,multi-agent
systems)–haveseenphenomenalgrowthinrecentyears.However,
the interaction of these two fields has not been sufficiently devel-
oped.Theinteractionofthetwomaybemoresignificantthaneither
