[19] describes two phases as a function of the rate at which agents are allowed to evolve their strategies. The SFI artificial market model is much more complex than the games described in this paper. However, it may be that the evolution rate in the SFI market model can be thought of as a proxy for the size of the strategy space available to the agents, and that the two phases seen there are reflections of the underlying dynamics we have discussed in this paper.
