N2 - In this paper, motivated by conceptual and computational considerations, we argue in favor of improved fidelity of ABMs in relation to the social processes they attempt to model. With ordering and concurrency characteristics of social interactions as our focus, we identify potential for innovations in ABM platforms using two elements: the SPEC framework of social primitives; and ongoing development of SPEC-ABM software platform, highlight relevant aspects of the intersection among conceptual, formal and technical perspectives, using Elixir as the programming language of choice for our implementation efforts.
