GUI (Graphical User Interface)

The original ASM model was presented to run in batch mode.
The original graphical controls/displays were written in a specialized Next-only framework and were deleted for the general release.

Swarm provides some standardized graphical displays that make it easier to monitor and interact with an on-going simulation.

As the original ASM authors discovered, it is difficult and risky to write a GUI from scratch!
