abstract = "This paper introduces an agent-based simulation (ABS) of {"}the evolution of collaboration{"} within inter-organizational networks of construction project teams from a game theory and social network point of views. Our simulation shows that as individuals are less familiar with others in the network and thereby less aware of networks they are involved in, it is more likely to take a longer time for networks to reach stable states. It was also found that the stronger tendency of cohesion arises, as the effort that individuals have to make for forming a relation with outside partner increases. Furthermore, the results indicate that the more efforts individuals need to make to form relations with those from other organizations, the less efficient networks are formed.",
