In agent-based modeling the focus is very much on agent-based simulation, as simulation is a very important tool for agent-based modeling. We also use agent-based simulation in this book with a stress on the mathematical foundation of agent-based modeling. We introduce two original mathematical frameworks, a theory of SLD (Social Learning Dynamics) and an axiomatic theory of economic exchange (Exchange Algebra) among agents. Exchange algebra gives bottom-up reconstruction of SNA (System of National Accountings). SLD provides the concept of indirect control of socio-economic systems to manage structural change and its stability. We also compare agent-based simulation with gaming simulation and investigate the epistemological foundation of agent-based modeling.
When originally published in 1994 this volume was the first international review of accounting theory to focus on the contributions of its leading thinkers. Very few attempts had been made, in the accounting literature, to assess the contribution of the theorists who have had such an important influence on the direction of research and practice. Written by experts the studies in this volume provide a unique guide to the development of accounting theory and practice in regions as diverse as the USA, Japan and Europe.
This book is a resource book for the comprehensive study of the development of accounting thought. It is designed to facilitate the study of the original works and stimulate further study of important accounting theory forbears. It covers: accounting theory accounting concepts of profit financial accounting and the foundations of accounting measurement accounting evaluation and economic behaviour.
Textbook on the special affinity of accounting and properties of mathematics and mathematical logic - covers theoretical aspects, methodology in the application of mathematics, operational research, the role of definitions, etc. Bibliography of mathematical and econometrics textbooks pp. 240 to 246.
This paper describes an operating system for the IBM 7044 which provides more core storage for the programmer than is available when using the IBM system IBSYS. This is achieved by sacrificing efficiency of input/output; and the system should be used only for programs which cannot run under IBSYS because of core storage requirements. This reflects a drastic change in RAND's computer system: originally an IBM 7040 coupled to a 7044, it now has been reduced to the latter machine. Input and output devices are tape units; tapes are processed by an IBM 360/30.
