==News==
 
===Swarm for Ubuntu and Debian Linux===
Jakson Aquino produced [[Swarm:_stable_release#Compiling_Swarm_from_source_on_Ubuntu_and_Debian_Linux|detailed instructions for making Swarm from source on Ubuntu/Debian Linux, and some binaries for Ubuntu 7.04]]. Thank you Jakson! {{posted|--[[User:SFRailsback|SFRailsback]] 15:51, 28 Aug 2007 (EDT)}}
 
===SwarmFest 2007 Presentations and Pictures===
We now have an [[SwarmFest:2007|archive page up for SwarmFest 2007]]. Take a look for pictures and presentations by many of the speakers.
 
===New release of EcoLab for C++ modellers===
Russell Standish is pleased to announce the release of Ecolab.4.D25. This is the first
major release of EcoLab for almost 2 years, and consists of a major
effort to eliminate all known bugs in the package, prior to starting
work on EcoLab 5. There are a few new features added as well. See
http://ecolab.sourceforge.net
 
Russell also announces:
"EcoLab 5 represents an opportunity to redesign/refactor the package, retaining all the good points of Ecolab 4. At this stage, no code has been written, but it is just a concept in my mind to make this an even better C++ ABM environment. I'd like to open up discussion with the modelling community to see what people would like. I'm particularly interested to hear from people interested in using C++, and who use EcoLab now, or have tried EcoLab and found it wanting, just what it is you'd like in a C++ modelling package." Please contact Russell if you are interested in a C++ platform for agent-based modeling. {{posted|--[[User:SFRailsback|SFRailsback]] 17:38, 3 Aug 2007 (EDT)}}
 
===Xholon project implements "StupidModel" template agent-based models===
Xholon is an open-source modeling platform that supposed agent-based models. Ken Webb of the Xholon project recently demonstrated this platform's capabilities by implementing all 16 of the "StupidModel" template ABMs, which have also been implemented in Swarm, Repast, NetLogo, and other platforms. See the [[Software_templates|template code page for additional information]]. Information on Xholon is at: http://www.primordion.com/Xholon and https://sourceforge.net/projects/xholon/
 
===Swarm Development Group Mentors 3 Google Summer of Code Students===
Swarm Development Group has been approved to mentor 3 students by Google's [http://code.google.com/soc/ Summer of Code program]. Welcome Nima Talebi, Gennady Telegin, and Joris Kluivers; who will be mentored by Scott Christley and Marcus Daniels. {{posted|--[[User:SFRailsback|SFRailsback]] 11:50, 20 Apr 2007 (EDT)}}
 
===Swarm and Objective-C++===
Objective-C++ is a new addition to the gcc compiler that allows code to mix Objective-C and C++. Marcus Daniels and Gennady Telegin just developed a version of Swarm that works with the Objective-C++ compiler, making a new way to obtain the advantages of both C++ (e.g., many libraries; better speed) and Swarm. See [[Swarm_FAQ:Writing_C_plusplus|the FAQ on C++ and Swarm]].{{posted|--[[User:SFRailsback|SFRailsback]] 10:06, 16 Mar 2007 (EDT)}}
 
===Be a Swarm Development Group Member!===
Membership in SDG is a way to support our efforts to maintain and improve Swarm, and to support agent-based modeling. [[SDG_membership|We just updated our membership page]] with new membership categories and procedures. Take a look to see what you can do. --[[User:SFRailsback|SFRailsback]] 17:34, 10 Nov 2006 (EST)

==Agent- and Individual-based Modeling Resources==
 
*'''[[ABM_Resources|Resources for agent-based modeling]]'''. This is a new area of the wiki for information on agent-based modeling in general. There are sub-areas for:
**Agent-based modeling community resources, including [[Swarm:_SwarmFest|SwarmFest]], our annual modeling conference
**Software (information on alternative platforms; learning materials; template models; integrated development environments)
**"How and why to do agent-based modeling": techniques and theory
**Resources specific to different scientific domains
 
*'''modelling@swarm.org: The email community of agent-based modelers.''' This email list discusses topics of general interest to agent-based modelers. [[Swarm:_Mailing_lists|More information and signup here.]]'''
