Abstract
© 2017, Springer International Publishing AG. In simulation projects, it is generally beneficial to have a toolset that allows following a more formal approach to system analysis, model design and model implementation. Such formal methods are developed to support a systematic approach by making different steps explicit as well as providing a precise language to express the results of those steps, documenting not just the final model but also intermediate steps. This chapter consists of two parts: the first gives an overview of which tools developed in software engineering can be and have been adapted to agent-based social simulation; the second part demonstrates with the help of an informative example how some of these tools can be combined into an overall structured approach to model development.
