The paper then discusses in detail the design and architecture of a simulator for financial markets. The Gaia methodology was employed in the development of MAFiMSi (Multi-Agent Finanacial Market Simulator), a general-purpose finacial market simulator of a dealer-type market. MAFiMSi is implemented as a library of C++ classes that currently support a stand-alone market simulation.23 pagesen-USThis item is likely protected under Title 17 of the U.S. Copyright Law.
