An evolutionary framework for studying behaviors of economic agents

We propose an evolutionary framework for studying agents that interact in electronic marketplaces and describe how to use the framework to study the dynamics of interaction and evolution of agent strategies. We present experimental results from a simulated market, where service providers compete for customers using multiple strategies. The results show how service providers of different strategies adapt to occupy distinct niches in the market.
