In this paper the results of several agent-based simulations, aiming to test the effectiveness
of norm recognition and the role of normative beliefs in norm emergence are presented and …

The necessity to model the mental ingredients of norm compliance is a controversial issue
within the study of norms. So far, the simulation-based study of norm emergence has shown …

Norms have facilitated smoother functioning in human societies. In the field of normative
multi-agent systems researchers are interested in investigating how the concept of social …

Societal norms or conventions help identify one of many appropriate behaviors during an
interaction between agents. The offline study of norms is an active research area where one …

Norms are utilised in agent societies to encourage acceptable behaviour by the participating
agents. They can be established or revised from the top-down (authority) or from the bottom …

Norms are shared expectations of behaviours that exist in human societies. Norms help
societies by increasing the predictability of individual behaviours and by improving co …

In this paper we will present the EMIL project," EMergence In the Loop: Simulating the two-
way dynamics of norm innovation", a three-year project funded by the European …

Norms are prescribed conducts applied by the majority of people. Getting across cultures
and centuries, norms evolved to rule all human relationships, from the most formal to the …

In this section I will first describe the various uses of the word “norm” in different scientific
arenas before stating the view I use. After this I will take a closer look at the work on norms I …

In this article, principles of architectures relating to normative agents are evaluated with
regard to the question whether and to what extend results of empirical research are …
