Available versions: RoboSoc-2.5.0 (original copy)
Documentation available: Yes ">Yes
Description: RoboSoc is a system for developing RoboCup agents suitable for educational use. It is designed to be as general, open, and easy to use as possible and to encourage and simplify the modification, extension and sharing of RoboCup agents, and parts of them. To do this it assumes four requirements from the user:

she wants the best possible data,
use as much time as possible for the decision making,
rather act on incomplete information than not act at all, and
she wants to manipulate the objects found in the soccer simulation.

RoboSoc takes care of the basic interactions with the soccer server, it does the timing, it supports different world models, and it has support for decision making.
