7 Towards a Specification of a Framework for Modelling Economic Learning by Modelling

7.2 A specification of the agent

1. a set of models: , from which it will have to select the model it will use for deciding its action and which it base future models on;

2. memory of past data: (possibly including past observations, past models and past actions);

3. maybe some present information: P (the available current climate), this may specify relevant subspaces for actions and outcomes;

4. maybe some explicit a priori information: (known information, like accounting rules);

5. some goal statements: (describing the goal of its actions);

6. and some specification of what the agent can control: (what variables, or combination of variables the agent can control);
