Archis Description

A free platform for creating artificial life simulations Archis is a free and easy to use, extendable general platform for artificial life simulations written in the Java programming language. These features make Archis a uniquely flexible and easy to use tool for doing research in artificial life. One of the features that really makes Archis special is it's plugin-based universe. Every aspect of the universe, from the "physics" of cellular reproduction to the landscape inhabited by cells is provided by plugins that operate according to a common interface. For example, using the normal ReproductionCondition cells must go through the actual mechanics of their own reproduction in an artificial-life-like way. However, by using GPReproductionCondition, cells can be artificially copied according to their reward function score in a way more akin to classical genetic programming. Archis can be changed from a "strong alife" system to a classical genetic programming system by simply changing plugins around!
