Moreover, ABSS can benefit from interactive shell facilities that can assist the model development process. We have addressed these problems through the development of a tool called SOIL, which provides a Python ABSS specifically designed for social networks. In this paper we present how this tool is applied to simulate viral marketing processes in a social network, and to evaluate the model with real data.", booktitle = "Advances in Practical Applications of Cyber-Physical Multi-Agent Systems: The PAAMS Collection", chapter = "Advances i", editor = "Demazeau Y., Davidsson P., Bajo J., Vale Z.
