What Does Emergence in Computer Simulations? Simulation between Epistemological and Ontological Emer fundamentally oscillate between epistemological and ontological interpretations. The paper relates these philosophical perspectives of emergence to the interpretation of emergence in computer simulation. It concludes that most arguments point to the fact that computer simulation deals with epistemo

Emergence as an Explanatory Principle in Artificial Societies. Reflection on the Bottom-Up Approach t: A micro foundation of social theory on the one hand and a notion of an emergent holistic social theory on the other. This dichotomy re-appears also in Artificial Societies. It will be argued that philosophical decisions made on the methodological level of how to interpret the concept of emergence

Reconstruction Failures: Questioning Level Designeling ontology and subsequent epistemological dead-ends. We argue that some high-level phenomena just cannot be explained and reconstructed from unsufficiently informative lower levels. This eventually requires a fundamental viewpoint change in not only low-level dynamics but also in the design of l
