* To facilitate the meeting of people and ideas from the communities of
social sciences (mainly economics,
finance, and management) and computer science, to build a structured
multi-disciplinary approach.

* To present agent-based computational methodologies and tools with
application to social sciences.

* To present uses, needs, and constraints of agent-based models employed
by social scientists to computer
scientists.

Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Market Dynamics
* Agent-Based Macroeconomics
* Discrete Choice Models in Economics and Management Sciences
* Emergence and Dynamics of Norms and Conventions
* Financial Market and Organization Models (Stock Price Dynamics,
Herding in Financial Markets)
* Epistemology and Agent-Based Methodological Issues
* Dynamics of Social and Economic Networks
