+The modelling platform GroIMP is designed as an integrated platform incorporating modelling, visualization and interaction. It exhibits several features that make it suitable for the field of biological and ALife modelling:
-The “modelling backbone” consists in the language XL. It is fully integrated, e.g., the user can interactively select the rules to be applied. GroIMP provides classes that can be used in modelling: Turtle commands, further geometrical classes like bicubic surfaces, the class Cell which has been used in the Game Of Life implementation, and so on. The outcome of a model is visualized within GroIMP. In the visual representation of the model output, users can interact with the dynamics of the model, e.g., by selecting or deleting elements. A networked mode is available, allowing different users to interact with the modeled world synchronously. This may be an interesting feature to be used in the field of e-learning.
