Emergent (formerly PDP++) is neural simulation software that is primarily intended for creating complex, sophisticated models of the brain and cognitive processes, but can also be used for any task to which neural networks are suited. The Open Dynamics Engine (ODE is a Physics engine.

It is currently in the 4. x series of releases. Development initially began in 1995 at Carnegie Mellon University, and as of 2007, continues at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

Features
Emergent features a modular design, based on the principles of object-oriented programming. Object-oriented programming (OOP is a Programming paradigm that uses " objects " and their interactions to design applications and computer programs It has been known to work in Microsoft Windows, Darwin and Linux. Microsoft Windows is a series of Software Operating systems and Graphical user interfaces produced by Microsoft. Darwin is an open source UNIX -based computer Operating system released by Apple Inc Linux (commonly pronounced ˈlɪnəks C-Super-Script (variously, CSS and C^C), a built-in C++-like interpreted scripting language, allows access to virtually all simulator objects and can initiate all the same actions as the GUI, and more. Version 4 features a full 3D environment for visualizations, based Qt and Open Inventor. Open Inventor, originally IRIS Inventor, is a C++ Object oriented Retained mode 3D graphics API designed by SGI to provide Realistic robotics simulations are made possible by integration with the Open Dynamics Engine. The Open Dynamics Engine (ODE is a Physics engine. Its two main components are a Rigid body dynamics simulation engine and a Collision detection engine A plugin system allows for expanding the software in many ways.
