The workshop wants to discuss how economic ABM can become more credible by designing them following standard principles of validation and verification. We would like to exchange ideas about methods discussed in literature, such as sensitivity analyses, guidelines for rigor, or the “systematic design of experiments” (DOE).We encourage all scientists working with ABM in economics and basic experience with model validation to send an abstract of 300-500 words by March 26th 2017 via email to sustbusy@escpeurope.eu, together with the application form available at www.sustbusy.eu. Scientists without a paper may apply explaining their motivation. Active participation is required by agreeing to serve as discussant for a paper. Notification of acceptance will be given after a review process by March 31, full papers are due by May 5th 2017. The workshop is free of charge.
