Abstract

The Collective Prisoner's Dilemma (CPD) as a tool for modeling the Artificial Society (AS) consisting of the mutually interacting agents is proposed. CPD is an extensive, complex and partially stochastic model constructed as an infinite series of parameterized evolutionary two-agent games conducted in form of the asymmetric Prisoners Dilemma played in intentionally selected pairs of agents. The main ideas and axioms of CPD are presented and discussed. The basic purpose of the model is to examine agents' personal features influence on social relations and society economic evolution. The model can be helpful in analyzing various forms of organization of a state and society. As an example of application, some interesting economic evolution patterns for AS are studied and significant factors of growth identified. CPD can be also used as an engine for computer strategic games.
