Abstract
In an artificial market approach with multi-agent systems, the static equilibrium concept is often used in market systems to approximate continuous market auctions. However, differences between the static equilibrium concept and continuous auctions have not been discussed in the context of an artificial market study. In this paper, we construct an artificial market model with both of them, namely, the Itayose and Zaraba method, and show simple characteristic differences between these methods based on computer simulations. The result indicates the further need to model the market system by studying artificial markets.
