Fermitools

Posted on March 24, 2004 by Dan Gezelter

Fermitools is an effort to provide the internet community with the Fermilab developed software packages that we have found most useful, and that we believe have general value to other application domains. The Fermilab Computing Division is offering this software to the wider community, with the goal of entering into collaboration with interested and committed users in the deployment, joint development, and support of software of mutual benefit.

CalcHEP

Posted on March 24, 2004 by Dan Gezelter

The CalcHEP package was created for calculation of multiparticle final states in collision and decay processes. The main idea in CalcHEP was to enable one to go directly from the lagrangian to the cross sections and distributions effectively, with the high level of automation.

Simbrain

Posted on March 23, 2004 by Dan Gezelter

SIMBRAIN is a freeware tool for building, runnning, and analyzing neural-networks (computer simulations of brain circuitry). Simbrain aims to be as visual and easy-to-use as possible. Also unique are its integrated "world component" and its representation of the network’s activation space. Simbrain is written in Java and runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.

SIM_AGENT

Posted on March 23, 2004 by Dan Gezelter

The SimAgent toolkit provides a range of resources for research and teaching related to the development of interacting agents in environments of various degrees and kinds of complexity. It can be run as a pure simulation tool, or installed in a robot with a sufficiently powerful on-board computer, e.g. running linux. It was originally developed to support exploratory research on human-like intelligent agents, but has also been used for student projects developing a variety of interactive games and simulations.

New CogSci links

Posted on March 23, 2004 by Dan Gezelter

Today we’ve been searching for some new Cognitive Science software, and have found some interesting entries. SIM_AGENT is a tool for studying cognition and affect. Simbrain is a freeware tool for building, runnning, and analyzing neural-networks.

Random Numbers

Posted on March 22, 2004 by Dan Gezelter

Offers the possibility to request a sequence of random numbers. The length and the bounds of the sequence can be specified by the user. A quantum random number generator connected to the server is used to produce the numbers on demand.

Random Numbers on demand

Posted on March 22, 2004 by Dan Gezelter

RandomNumbers.info is a site that generates random number sequences on demand using a quantum optical process. Not exactly what we’d call software, but still cool enough to be added to our Probability section!

XStar

Posted on March 18, 2004 by Dan Gezelter

A Unix program that simulates the movement of stars. It starts by putting a bunch of stars on the screen, and then it lets the inter-body gravitational forces move the stars around. The result is a lot of neat wandering paths, as the stars interact and collide.
