Introduction

This is a modern derivative of_Logo that allows for the exploration of emergent phenomena and come with many experiments in social studies, biology, physics, and many other sciences. Although the focus is on the interactions of a large number of independent agents, these variations still capture the original flavor of_Logo. NetLogo is a programmable modeling environment for simulating natural and social phenomena. It is particularly well suited for modeling complex systems developing over time. Modelers can give instructions to hundreds or thousands of independent "agents" all operating in parallel. This makes it possible to explore the connection between the micro-level behavior of individuals and the macro-level patterns that emerge from the interaction of many individuals.

Development

NetLogo is developed at the Center for Connected Learning and Computer-Based Modeling at Northwestern University. NetLogo author: Uri Wilensky Lead developer: Seth Tisue
