Abstract:

EvoX's a cool tool for the simulation of complex systems. It's an object based, C++ class system with various analysis tools included. EvoX has a tcl/tk interface, large parts of which use the `[incr tcl]' extension for object oriented capabilities. This provides a largely parallel class hierarchy embodying the interface-relevant parts of a given model world. EvoX is very simply extensible and specialisable both in terms of creating new C++ objects for a user's simulations and in terms of extending the interface if desired (although this is not normally necessary). Lastly EvoX uses a distributed programming paradigm so that simulations running locally or remotely may be examined, adjusted and analysed using a single interface.
