* Special ACE Issue: IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation
Agent-based computational economics (ACE) is the computational study
of economies modelled as evolving systems of autonomous interacting
agents. Papers on ACE-related topics are solicited for possible
inclusion in a special issue of the IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary
Computation on the Agent-Based Modelling of Evolutionary Economic
Systems, guest edited by Leigh Tesfatsion. Each submitted paper
should address a clearly defined issue of economic interest from an
evolutionary agent-based perspective. The deadline for receipt of
paper submissions is August 31, 2000.
Detailed information about this special issue can be obtained at
http://www.econ.iastate.edu/tesfatsi/ieeespec.htm.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
* Special Issue: Netnomics
Articles for a special issue of Netnomics will be selected from among
the best discussion papers presented at a two-hour workshop titled
"Intelligent Multi-Agent Systems for E-Commerce (IMASE 2000)," to be
held as part of the Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference
(GECCO-2000), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, July 8-12, 2000. IMASE 2000
will concentrate on the use of adaptive learning agents, particularly
for Internet trading and economic simulations. The deadline for
receipt of 3-page abstracts for this workshop is March 23, 2000. For
more information, visit
http://www.cwi.nl/~bill/imase.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
* Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation
The first issue of the third volume of the electronic Journal of
Artificial Societies and Social Simulation (JASSS) was published on
Monday, January 31st, 2000. This new issue can be accessed online at
http://www.soc.surrey.ac.uk/JASSS/JASSS.html.
The new issue includes: two peer-reviewed papers titled "Agent-Based
Modelling of Collective Identity: Testing Constructivist Theory" and
"Asynchronous Time Evolution in an Artificial Society Model;" a Forum
section paper titled "Liberal Order for Software Agents?;" a detailed
discussion regarding the use of Matlab for teaching social
simulation; and four book reviews.
The next issue of JASSS is due at the end of March. Submissions for
the March issue are welcome. Because JASSS is distributed over the
World Web Wide and all editorial operations use the Internet, a much
faster turn-round from first submission to acceptance can be achieved
in comparison to most conventional paper journals.

Book Announcements
Note: The following book announcements have been incorporated into the
annotated syllabus of ACE-related readings linked to the ACE web site home
page. Links to publishers (for ordering purposes) can be found on the
journal and book announcements and information page linked to the ACE web
site home page.
* Carl Shapiro and Hal R. Varian, Information Rules: A Strategic
Guide to the Networked Economy, Harvard Business School Press,
November 1998, 352 pp., ISBN 0-8758-5863-X.
The authors consider how to market and distribute goods in the
networked economy, with examples drawn from a wide array of
industries (airlines, software, entertainment, communications,...).
Issues covered include pricing, intellectual property , versioning,
lock-in, compatibility, and standards. From the Economist, December
12, 1998: "If you want to understand how the networked economy really
functions and why some companies succeed spectacularly ... (while
others fail) despite having mould-breaking technology, look no
further."
Carl Shapiro is Professor of Business Strategy at the Haas School of
Business and Hal Varian is the Dean of the School of Information
Management and Systems, both at the University of California at
Berkeley.

* Zbigniew Michalewicz and David B. Fogel, How to Solve It,
Springer-Verlag, N.Y., 1999, 480 pp., ISBN 3-540-66061-5.
From the publisher: "This book is the only source that provides
comprehensive, current, and detailed information on problem solving
using modern heuristics. It covers classic methods of optimization,
including dynamic programming, the simplex method, and gradient
techniques, as well as recent innovations such as simulatated
annealing, tabu search, and evolutionary computation. Integrated into
the discourse is a series of problems and puzzles to challenge the
reader."
Zbigniew Michalewicz is with the Department of Computer Science,
University of North Carolina, Charlotte, and David Fogel is with
Natural Selection, Inc., La Jolla, California.

* Francesco Luna and Benedikt Stefansson (eds.), Economic
Simulations in Swarm: Agent-Based Modelling and Object Oriented
Programming, Kluwer Academic Publishers, Volume 14, Advances in
Computational Economics, January 2000, 328 pp., ISBN 0-7923-8665-5
From the authors: "Computer simulations of economic systems are
slowly gaining ground within the economics profession. However, such
a process is hindered by a lack of communication among researchers
who do not share a common language. For its object-oriented structure
and its verstility, Swarm has the necessary characteristics to become
a credible universal language of agent-based simulations. (This book)
collects a series of original articles in such domains as macro and
micro economics, industrial organization, monetary theory, and
finance, all linked by a common denominator: the use of the Swarm
simulation platform."
Francesco Luna is with the Universit Ca' Foscari, Venice, Italy, and
Oberlin College, Oberlin, Ohio, U.S.A. Benedikt Stefansson is with
the University of California, Los Angeles, California, U.S.A.

* W. B. Langdon, Genetic Programming and Data Structures: Genetic
Programming + Data Structure = Automatic Programming!, Kluwer
Academic Publishers, 1998, 292 pp., ISBN 0-7923-8135-1.
From the publisher: "Computers that `program themselves' has long
been an aim of computer scientists. ... While (functions
automatically created by genetic programming) can be of great use,
they contain no memory and relatively little work has addressed
automatic creation of program code including stored data. (This book)
shows how abstract data types (stacks, queues and lists) can be
evolved using genetic programming, and demonstrates how genetic
programming can evolve general programs which solve the nested
brackets problem, recognize a Dyck context free language, and
implement a simple four function calculator. In these cases, an
appropriate data structure is beneficial compared to simple indexed
memory. This book also includes a survey of genetic programming, with
a critical review of experiments with evolving memory..."

socioeconomic behavior using Mathematica, a general-purpose
scientific and mathematical software. For example, in a forthcoming
article in Mathematica Education and Research titled "Rebels,
Independents, and Conformists: The RIC Model of Social Behavior," he
uses Mathematica to construct a conceptually and computationally
straightforward model of social behavior in which humans make
decisions on how to think or act either independently or with the
influence of others. For additional information about this work,
