Is this list too generic? I like this because it's the only article that seems to have a list of simulators for swarm robotics (my field) but it's mixed in with loosely related ones for social sciences or economics. Also some of the columns are not measuring the same thing, for instance I understand '3D capabilities' in the context of swarms to mean that agents are capable of moving in 3D space, yet on some of these they seem to define 3D as "there are 3D graphics in the viewer".Turtledaat (talk)

I'd also like to simplify some of these columns, some are way too verbose and seem to be written like an advertisement.Turtledaat (talk)

Should there be a section that retired projects? I noticed a couple smaller projects haven't been updated in > 1 year. Jackiekazil (talk) 03:35, 14 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Actually that might be a good idea, but as long as there is a Wikipedia page about it. If a project does not have a Wikipedia page but is actively maintained and has a reasonable following then I'd also include it (which I've been doing).Turtledaat (talk) 21:40, 12 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What is this page ? It mixes everything, for example most common frameworks are missing and some other tools not related to agents (i.e. JESS) appear in the list. What did you wanted to do ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.214.107.61 (talk) 09:47, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

+1 - I was just thinking the same thing. Might be a good idea to add what each framework adds to the notion of "agent" - JESS for example can be used in an "agent" like any other rule engine, but I'm not sure it allows specific modelling of agents per se. 86.189.16.209 (talk) 08:01, 5 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The first two links here might perhaps be of interest, ----Erkan Yilmaz 11:35, 21 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

MATLAB is not ABM modelling software - why have you included it? Richwil (talk) 14:30, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified 11 external links on Comparison of agent-based modeling software. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

No special action is required regarding these talk page notices, other than regular verification using the archive tool instructions below. Editors have permission to delete these "External links modified" talk page sections if they want to de-clutter talk pages, but see the RfC before doing mass systematic removals. This message is updated dynamically through the template {{source check}} (last update: 5 June 2024).

Criteria for inclusion

I recently added Mesa, an active and growing Python framework for doing ABM, and had my edit quickly reverted without comment.

What are the criteria for software that can be included here? --Jdfoote (talk) 20:56, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I too think that software are arbitrarily included/excluded. I added Agents.jl, an active and well capable framework in Julia lang, and it is removed. Kavir1698 (talk) 19:34, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This is a list of software that has a preexisting Wikipedia article. - MrOllie (talk) 20:46, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
