Icsim

General Information
Name
ICSIM
Source
International Computer Science Institute, Berkeley, CA
Price
Target usage
experimentation, research; ICSIM is not aimed at beginners; it requires some knowledge about neural networks, and also some programming skills.

Model

Network Architecture
(Topology / Learning Algorithm / Model) ICSIM provides building blocks for the elementary components, plus functions for combining them into complex networks; it also contains a library of the more common network models, plus some examples
Paradigms
popular units, interconnection patterns, pre-defined networks
Limitations
O ne of the design goals of ICSIM is to provide a very flexible environment. The predefined models can be specialized or modified; if necessary, the user can integrate new models into the ICSIM framework.

Implementation

Display
values of unit / link parameters, current status of the network; ICSIM provides an inspection facility based on the Sather debugging environment which allows the display and modification of all values
User Interface
shell, GUI (in development)
Execution
batch, interactive; debugging through Sather
Data Format
no specific requirements
Evaluation
user defined
Performance

System Requirements

Hardware
in principle no special requirements; mainly intended for workstations
Operating System
UNIX
Display
mono, X-Windows,
Language
Sather, which is translated to C
