JBotEvolver is a Java-based open-source and versatile simulation platform for education and research-driven experiments in evolutionary robotics (ER). JBotEvolver has been used in previous ER studies of our research group: in offline evolution to online evolution and learning, single to multi-robot systems, and in a number of undergraduate and graduate courses at the University Institute of Lisbon (ISCTE-IUL).

Conillon is a lightweight distributed computing platform. It allows Java-based tasks to be computed on a grid of computers with minimal effort and overhead. The necessary Java classes are loaded by worker nodes as needed.

I adapted the open-source project Moppy to be able to play sound in multiple floppy drives using a MIDI keyboard as input. A later version allowed music to be played on the drives using a real guitar (see URL for videos).
