Computational methods have revolutionised the sciences, including the social sciences. Researchers are able to experiment with different hypotheses in silico, investigating the dynamics of complex, interdependent systems. Agent-based models simulate people (or firms or other entities) taking actions influenced by their own characteristics and their social and physical environment. These models are particularly good at modelling the heterogeneity of a population and exploring the implications of the interactions between people and their actions.
