Agent-based simulation is a

Agent-based simulation is a research method often applied in economics. The authors describe a plan to modify a MUD system to act as a platform for such simulation. The MUD is amended so that it facilitates economic transactions between players, but instead of human players, the world is populated with artificial agents. Established algorithms are used to implement the behavior of these agents. Human players can be used as well, either as observers or as part of the simulation. Seems to be work in progress that was never finished.
