This book is the outcome of a project that started with the
organisation of
theTopicalWorkshopon"Agent-BasedComputationalModelling. AnInst-
ment for Analysing Complex Adaptive Systems in Demography,
Economics and Environment" at the Vienna Institute of Demography,
December 4-6, 2003. The workshop brought together scholars from
several disciplines, all- ing both for serious scienti?c debate and
for informal conversation over a cup co?ee or during a visit to the
wonderfulmuseums of Vienna. One of the nicest features of
Agent-Based Modelling is indeed the opportunity that scholars ?nd a
common language and discuss from their disciplinary perspective, in
turn learning from other perspectives. Given the success of the
meeting, we found it important to pursue the purpose of collecting
these interdisciplinary contributions in a volume. In order to
ensure the highest scienti?c standards for the book, we decided
that all the contributions (with the sole exception of the
introductory chapter) should have been accepted conditional on peer
reviews. Generoushelpwasprovidedbyreviewers, someofwhomwereneither
directly involved in the workshop nor in the book. All this would
not have been possible without the funding provided by the Complex
Systems N- work of Excellence (Exystence) funded by the European
Union, the Vienna Institute of Demography of the Austrian Academy
of Sciences, Universit a Bocconi, and ARC Systems Research GmbH,
and the help of the wonderful sta? ofthe Vienna Institute of
Demography(in particular, Ani Minassianand Belinda Aparicio Diaz).
Agent-Based Modelling is important, interesting and also fun-we
hope this book contributes to showing that. Milano Francesco C.
