1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
The GNU/Linux OS has evolved from its origins in hackerdom to a full blown UNIX, capable of rivaling any
commercial UNIX. It now provides an inexpensive base to build a great workstation. It has shed its hardware
dependencies, having been ported to DEC Alphas, Sparcs, PowerPCs, and many others. This potential speed
boost along with its networking support will make it great for workstation clusters. As a workstation it allows
for all sorts of research and development, including artificial intelligence and artificial life.
The purpose of this Howto is to provide a source to find out about various software packages, code libraries,
and anything else that will help someone get started working with (and find resources for) artificial
intelligence, artificial life, etc. All done with GNU/Linux specifically in mind.
1.2 What's New
• v3.1 New entries: SimpleAI .
Resurfaced MIA entry: NuPIC .
Deleted the section on "Programming languages". I moved the couple of agent-oriented domain
specific languages, 2APL and APRIL , into the sections relevant to the work. I removed the rest as
they were all just general purpose languages.
Changed my Copyright/License to CC0. That is no copyright, it is Public Domain. I no longer wish to
take part in copyright; http://questioncopyright.org/
