Previous developments:
There are different works in relation with this project, that was developed in previous works for the research groups participating in the project. Some of these systems are:

• EVOCOM ver 2.0 : EVOlutionary COMputation Matlab Toolbox
• Contact with: evocom@fis.ucm.es  
• Authors: Eva Besada Portas, Jose Antonio Lopez Orozco, Bonifacio de Andres Toro
• EVOCOM is a versatile optimization Matlab toolbox that provides the framework for developing different Evolutionary Algorithms. It can be used as a traditional GA, or for solving genetic programming and/or multiobjective problems. It can work with different kinds of constraints, codifications (numeric and/or symbolic) and in different domains.
• Proyect:  CRIBAV
  
• Simulation Environment for real time control: Application to ship control.
• Contact with: Dr. Oscar Polo , Dr. Segundo Esteban or Prof. Jesús M. de la Cruz
• This is an environment in C++ with the intention of try the control program (in the CONBAV project) previous to implementation in the real system.
• Project: CONBAV
