The major changes concern the Cormas kernel, based on a MVC architecture (Model independent of his Views and of the way to Control it). The design has been oriented in two directions: 1) to enable the development of interactive simulations, and 2) to facilitate the collective design and implementation of models.

For the first point, the goal is to interact more easily with the entities of a simulation (to move them manually, send them messages, track them, "zoom in" on parts of space, ...) in order to participate, alone or with others, on the run of a scenario.
For the 2nd point, we seek to facilitate the implementation of an ABM. This is to simplify how to create new classes and to specify attributes and their values. But it is also possible to draw simple activitiy diagrams that are directly interpreted by Cormas. The goal is not to avoid coding a model, but to organize plug-and-play activity nodes (software blocks that were previously coded by the modeler) in order to graphically design the behavior's rule of an agent. This diagram editor allows the creation of new activities that are interpreted “on the fly” by Cormas.

Some progress are still needed in both directions. These are the first steps.

Several other changes were done, such as the development of a sensitivity analysis module or the creation of new entities (networks, nodes and arcs).
