Repast borrows many concepts from the Swarm agent-based modeling toolkit [1]. Repast is differentiated from Swarm since Repast has multiple pure implementations in several languages and built-in adaptive features such as genetic algorithms and regression. For reviews of Swarm, Repast, and other agent-modeling toolkits, see the 2002 survey by Serenko and Detlor, the 2002 survey by Gilbert and Bankes, and the 2003 toolkit review by Tobias and Hofmann [2][3][4]. </p>
