Abstract
Developing the models of artificial societies with simulation of agents’ joint socio-economic activity a challenging task is to endow the agents with properties allowing them to mutually take into account each other's intentions and activities. The presence of such properties in agents creates conditions for the emergence of social organization in the modeled system, including processes of coordination and governance. In the proposed study, agents obtain the required properties due to their natural ability to create and use shared (collective) mental models under various modes of communication between them. On this basis, the concept of an agent with a universal coordination instrument (UCI) is substantiated. Agents optimize UCI settings to take full account of each other's activities and maximize the benefits of joint activities. UCI with settings is a common information environment for participants in joint activities, as well as a means of determining the optimal content of their joint activities. The main components and functions of UCI as a special type of agent-based simulation model are discussed. The necessary conditions for using the UCI are considered. From the results obtained it follows that individuals with UCI have both substantive and procedural rationality, which leads to the emergence of two types of equilibrium in the socio-economic system.
