Intentional adequacy of computer programs as the experimental reference of agent-based social simulation
2005
Proceedings of the fourth international joint conference on Autonomous agents and multiagent systems - AAMAS '05
The classical theory of computation is not an adequate model of reality for agent-based simulation in the social sciences. The paradigm of intentional computation seems to be the only one possible to reflect the multiparadigmatic character of social science in terms of agent-based computational social science. This is a paradigm that enlarges the concept of valid computation, which must be dependent on the particular theoreticalmethodological context of the social scientist.
