SCS-C: ----- SCS-C is a (`mostly ANSI') C language translation and extension of Goldberg's Simple Classifier System, as presented in Appendix D in his seminal book "Genetic Algorithms in Search, Optimization, and Machine Learning", Addison-Wesley, Reading MA, 1989. SCS-C has been developed in parallel on a Sun4 10/30 and an ATARI ST, and thus should be quite portable. It is also configurable (1) for the operating system you're running, and (2) the compiler you're using. Refer to the documentation on how to configure SCS-C for your needs. SCS-C is distributed free of charge and the other terms of the GPL, ie. the GNU General Public License. Included are some additional goodies, e.g. the VAX/VMS version of SCS. Rewritten in C by Erik Mayer <emayer@uoft02.utoledo.edu> (see contrib/vax-scs/*), some random number generators (see contrib/plauger/*, contrib/knuth/*, contrib/vlcr/*), and a short paper (docs/repro.*) that reproduces the results from Chapter 6 of Goldberg's book, and explains, why the generated figures of SCS-C simply cannot resemble the printed exactly. Some parts of the distribution are therefore "individually copyrighted", ie. by other authors, and are protected by the COPYLITE protection scheme. Refer to the file of the same name, that comes with the source distribution. SCS-C is available via ENCORE as ../EC/CFS/src/scsc-1.2j.tar.gz (You will need the GNU gzip/gunzip packages to uncompress the file(s)).
