CENTRE FOR RESEARCH IN SOCIAL SIMULATION



The Centre for Research in Social Simulation (CRESS), based in the Department of
Sociology in the Faculty of Arts and Human Sciences at the University of Surrey,
is a multidisciplinary centre bringing together the social sciences, software
engineering and agent-based computing to promote and support the use of social
simulation in research in the human sciences.


WHAT IS SOCIAL SIMULATION?

There is growing interest in using computer simulation to explore issues in the
social sciences. Simulation is a novel research method in most parts of the
social sciences, including sociology, political science, economics,
anthropology, geography, archaeology and linguistics. It can also be the
inspiration for new, process-oriented theories of society.



If you would like more information on CRESS research and activities, or to learn
more about collaboration with CRESS, please email us.

For brief guide to social simulation, see Agent-based social simulation: dealing
with complexity (PDF), by Nigel Gilbert.

PhD opportunities: We welcome applications to work in CRESS towards a PhD on, or
using social simulation. More details here.

You can access models in Hamill & Gilbert's Agent-based Modelling in Economics
here.

The HOPES model, exploring the complex nature of household energy use to benefit
consumers and meet the UK government's 2050 energy reduction targets, is
available here.
