The planet of agents

Theory and agent simulation to capture the complex economy

At the dawn of time life on earth originated from bacteria, whose combination and evolution created all living organisms. The history of the earth, the history of life, the history of men, our history is emergence from below, the history of elementary entities that over time become complex adaptive systems, systems that learn and evolve. The success of theory and agent simulation - in full swing in the interest of scientists from all over the world - is based on attributing to these elementary entities the ability to interact, learn and evolve. The agents represent men, groups, companies, companies, supply chains, districts whose complex evolutionary dynamics can be studied. This work is a study on agent theory and simulation applied in the economic and managerial field. "The planet of agents" is the planet earth, the planet of men, men agents of their own future.

Dedicated to those who have understood that the emergence from below, in all its infinite variety, is the most fascinating mystery of science.
