swarmapps-objc-2.2

Swarmapps In Objective-C 
Version 2.2

This package includes example programs that work with Swarm-2.2. 
The package represents a volunteer effort to revise and improve
several Swarm programs.

In the "swarmapps-2.1.1" package, the following applications were
featured:

heatbugs  
hello-world  
market  
mousetrap  
template  
tutorial


In this package, we have not included the following because 
there were no volunteers who wanted to actively maintain them:

hello-world
market
template

In the place of those applications, we have included several
new, exciting programs.  

arborgamesII: See the trees and the forest!
  
conway: Conway's Game of Life

schellingII: An implementation of Schelling's model of racial segregation

sss: A Swarm version of Epstein & Axtell's Sugar Scape model.

We hope that the hello-world programs will be incorporated in the
future.  The future of the market application is less optimistic.  If
one wants to study a model of the stock market, one can instead
consider the famous Santa Fe Artificial Stock Market (ASM)
http://ArtStkMkt.sourceforge.net.


If you have questions about how to run or use these applications,
please address them to the community on the swarm-support email list.
If you can't find help there, you can directly contact the authors of
the individual programs.  Those authors are reading swarm-support, so you should usually just join that list and address that general audience so others can learn from your questions and their answers.
