* Multi-Agent Based Simulation (MABS): a branch of DAI that builds the foundation for simulations that need to analyze not only phenomena at [[macro]] level but also at [[micro]] level, as it is in many social simulation scenarios.
 
The key concept used in DPS and MABS is the abstraction called [[Artificial intelligence agent|agent]]. An agent is a virtual (or physical) [[autonomous]] entity that has an understanding of its environment an acts upon it. An agent is usually able to communicate with other agents in the same system to achieve a common goal, that one agent alone could not achieve.
