Simulated Annealing Demonstration 1.0
Simulated Annealing Demonstration is a Java application that demonstrates the Simulated Annealing algorithm more>>
It is based on probabilistic methods that avoid being stuck at local (non-global) minima. It has proven to be a simple but powerful method for large-scale combinatorial optimization.
For practical purposes, simulated annealing has solved the famous traveling salesman problem: find the shortest of N! paths connecting N cities. Simulated annealing finds a very good approximation to the shortest path out of the huge number of all possible paths. Annealing is natures trick to find extrema in very complicated situations.
Simulated annealing mimics on a computer the natural process by which crystal lattices of glass or metal relax when heated. The molecules of hot glass or metal are free to move about. Temperature is an average of the thermal energy in each molecule of an object.
If the temperature drops quickly, these molecules solidify into a complex structure. However, if the temperature drops slowly, they form a highly ordered crystal. The molecules of a crystal solidify into a minimal energy state.
Some real applications simulated annealing:
- Determining the sequence of observations for an automated astronomical telescope [2]
- Computer Aided Geometric Design
- Optimization of Econometric Statistical Functions
- Games with random moves determined by the simulated annealing algorithm
- Arranging connections on chips and switching devices in telephone networks
The algorithm:
In the simulated annealing algorithm, an objective function to be minimized is defined. Here it will be the total path length through a set of points.

Shell for Simulated Agent Systems 2.2
Provide a generic environment for modelling and experimenting more>> Multi-Agent Simulation Environment
SeSAm (Shell for Simulated Agent Systems) provides a generic environment for modelling and experimenting with agent-based simulation. We specially focused on providing a tool for the easy construction of complex models, which include dynamic interdependecies or emergent behaviour.
SeSAm provides:
Easy visual agent modelling,
Flexible environment and situation definition,
The whole power of a programming language,
Integrated graphical simulation analysis ,
Distribution of simulation runs in your LAN ,
and many further features....
SeSAm is usefull for simulations in many application domains, such as:
Logistics (coordination, storage layout optimization, software test,,..),
Production (factory, optimized plans for different requirements,..)
Traffic (avoidance of traffic jams, traffic light control, route choice..),
Passenger Flow (market improvement, evacuation of buildings)
Health Care (optimization of clinical processes, reduction of costs)
Biology (understanding of insect behaviour, testing theories)
and many other domains....
SeSAm is a tool for so called agent based simulation. Agents are active entities of the simulation and their behaviour is implemented with activity diagrams. Based on an extensive number of primitive components, a user is able to design a simulation graphically without knowing the syntax of a traditional programming language.
The model specification is executable in the same environment and the dynamics of this simulation may be observed. As there are freely configurable instruments for gathering data and scripting options for constructing simulation experiments, SeSAm is a highly valuable tool for MAS simulations especially for complex models with flexible agent behaviour and interactions.<<less

breve Simulation Environment 2.5
breve Simulation Environment - build 3D simulations of multi-agent systems and artificial life. more>>
Users define the behaviors of agents in a 3D world and observe how they interact. breve includes physical simulation and collision detection so you can simulate realistic creatures, and an OpenGL display engine so you can visualize your simulated worlds.
breve simulations are written in an easy to use language called steve. The language is object-oriented and borrows many features from languages such as C, Perl and Objective C, but even users without previous programming experience will find it easy to jump in.

FilterSIM 1.0
FilterSIM simulates the ussage of Kodak Wratten filters on digital images. more>> Pretty simple actually. Just select a glass filter and the image will be shown with the filter on!
In real life during the exposition your digital/film camera will auto compensate the lower light. This also simulate an Auto white Balance on digital cameras and color balance correction on film cameras during developing. For light balancing filters this option (default) will give you more natural looking and pleasant result.
Filter for Example 18A is a transparent UV filter. It is included, but in fact the result cant be properly simulated for obvious reasons - the filter is just blocking invisible UV radiation...
From the other hand filters such 87C are Infra Red filters - they are transparent only for IR light. Normal film wouldnt be able to take any pictures (you need IR film) but digital cameras are sensitive to IR light. (Point any remote control toward your digital camera and press few buttons - the display should see a light). Anyway this effect cant be simulated neither - on normal digital image you dont have the IR information distinguished.<<less
