INNOVATION NETWORKS-A SIMULATION APPROACH

Nigel Gilbert, Andreas Pyka, Petra Ahrweiler · 2001 · Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation

Summary. This paper presents a multi-agent simulation model of innovation networks where firms, research labs, and policy actors generate new ideas and products. Agents improve their innovations either independently or by partnering with others to combine knowledge. The simulation successfully reproduces real-world innovation network characteristics observed in telecommunications and biotechnology sectors, offering insights for policy decisions.
