| Abstract: | This paper reports and extends discussions carried out duringa workshop held at the Santa Fe Institute in August 1995 bythe authors. It treats eight major topics: (i) the importanceof carefully examining research on routine, (ii) the conceptof ‘action patterns’ in general and in terms ofroutine, (iii) the useful categorization of routines and otherrecurring patterns, (iv) the research implications of recentcognitive results, (v) the relation of evolution to action patterns,(vi) the contributions of simulation modeling for theory inthis area, (vii) examples of various approaches to empiricalresearch that reveal key problems, and (viii) a possible definitionof ‘routine’. An extended appendix by Massimo Egidiprovides a lexicon of synonyms and opposites covering use ofthe word ‘routine’ in such areas as economics, organizationtheory and artificial intelligence. |
