Artificial Life Models in Software - Andrew Adamatzky & Maciej Komosinski

By Andrew Adamatzky & Maciej Komosinski

Release Date: 2006-01-26

Genre: Computers

(0 ratings)
Artificial Life Models in Software presents software tools, environments and realities dealing with creation, imitation and analysis of artefactual, virtual and living forms, written by those who personally design and produce software, hardware and art installations in artificial life, simulated complex systems and virtual worlds.

This timely volume offers a nearly exhaustive overview and original analysis of major non-profit artificial life software packages. The carefully selected topics include:

ยท simulation of real and imaginary life forms and their evolution

ยท self-organization

ยท emergent behaviours

ยท swarm intelligence

ยท evolutionary robotics

ยท agent-based simulations

ยท adaptive, complex and biologically inspired ecosystems

ยท creative computer art

There has long been a need within the academic and research community for an informal introduction and guidance to modern software tools for modelling and simulation of life-like phenomena โ€“ Artificial Life Models in Software fills this gap and provides invaluable information to both professional and amateur readers, offering detailed reviews of contemporary software for artificial life.
