Abstract
Wherever less successful heterogeneous people try to emulate those more successful, evolution will result. We know this because these are prerequisites for evolutionary systems . Similar prerequisites are routinely used by scientists, engineers, and industry to create specified parts and systems. What will arise from the resulting evolutionary forces is not always self-evident. This is where agent-based model experiments are most useful. This describes precisely how to place the prerequisites of evolution into a multi-agent economic model and demonstrates some results .
