Description: The open-source SOSIEL (Self-Organizing Social & Inductive Evolutionary Learning) Platform is a multi-agent system that was developed for building models that are capable of capturing the spatio-temporal complexity of social contexts in which the heterogeneity of knowledge, the need for learning, and the potential for collective action play a significant role. The SOSIEL Platform can simulate the cross-generational progression of one or a large number of boundedly-rational agents, each of which is represented by a cognitive architecture that consists of theoretically-grounded cognitive processes and agent-specific and empirically-grounded knowledge. The agents can interact among themselves and/or with coupled natural (e.g., LANDIS-II) and/or technical systems, learn from their and each other’s experience, create new practices, and make decisions about taking and then take (potentially collective) actions.
