I thought that some readers of the Swarm list might be interested in
knowing that the UCLA Center for Computable Economics in cooperation
with the Bionomics Institute will hold a Second Annual Conference on
Economic Simulation, February 7-8, 1997.
A large share of the scheduled papers are based on some form of Agent
Based Models and simulations.
The conference will feature 12 speakers, a detailed schedule follows in
this message. All sessions will be held at the Anderson Graduate School
of Management on the UCLA campus.
If you know someone who might be interested in attending, please feel
free to distribute this announcement widely.
There is no fee to attend the conference, but we urge participants to
register in advance.
