Summary
The cooperative utilization of agent-based computational simulation and gaming simulation reproduces complex phenomena in the economic and social environment. It supports experiments with various controlling methods, to evaluate the design, and to extract the fundamental results. We develop a simple agent-based simulation framework “ASIA” and apply it to economic and environmental studies including the international greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions trading. It is found the worldwide cost reduction follow through the individual adjustment interpreted as movement in agents’ cost landscape. We also introduce a Web application for the gaming simulation connected with the agent system, which can be used for the international emissions trading experiments with human players.
