aiParts Project Home Page aiParts is a collection of Open Source C++ software parts that can be used to implement AI Patterns and other artificial intelligence techniques. aiParts is primarily aimed at problems in which a number of decisions must be made, each affecting the options available in subsequent decisions. Examples include: navigating a car, playing chess, and assigning students to classes. The basic idea is that you assemble a problem from parts that know how to solve problems. aiParts 0.8.5 was released on Nov-21-2005. The primary changes were enhancements (and two minor bug fixes) in the High-Hope classes. See RELEASE.txt for more information about this release. Source files may be viewed or downloaded free of charge. Status of the AI ...is in the file README.txt. Releases and Credits ...are in the file RELEASE.txt. Information about Modules ...can be viewed on the Modules page, which is actually a subset of the file README.txt. The AI and the History This project has evolved over many years from work done by Brian Marshall on Dirty-Hard Problems and the High-Hope Strategy. The site www.aiPatterns.org describes pandemonium and emotion. A technique was developed that is based on how emotions might affect decision-making. Experimental old software was released and licensed so that anyone can do anything they want with it. The old home page has been replaced by this page. Open Source aiParts is OSI Certified Open Source Software as a result of the way it is licensed. Contributers copyright their contributions and license them with the MIT License. This means that you can do pretty much whatever you want with the aiParts software... use it, distribute it, build it into your commercial application, whatever.
