We are previewing a major new version of our flagship product AnyLogic – AnyLogic 9. The interface is being entirely redesigned and will be browser-based so that you have a common user experience on desktop and online.

In this series of blog posts, we show how we are making AnyLogic 9 more user-friendly. We have already talked about the full integration of the program with AnyLogic Cloud and new mechanics for working with process diagrams. Today we will show how the new version of the toolbar differs from the current one.

AnyLogic 9, the new version of our popular simulation tool, is on its way and we will be showing it in September at our annual simulation modeling event - the AnyLogic Conference. Here, we continue our preview updates for AnyLogic 9.

We have already shown how we can make it easier for users to create and edit process diagrams. In this article, you will find, perhaps, the most important difference between AnyLogic 9 and previous versions – cloud platform integration.

Yes, the soft roll-out did not go unnoticed for long! Not only is there a new look and modern feel to the help site, it has also been redesigned with new features and functionality to help you answer your AnyLogic queries more comfortably and easily.

Along with the fresh look, comes customization. In the top-right of your browser window, you will find two toggles – one to toggle dark mode and the other to cycle through font sizes. Find out more!

If you follow our blog, you will know that we are currently working on AnyLogic 9 — a new version of the industry leading simulation tool.

Blog readers can see AnyLogic 9 in action right now. We are launching a series of articles to provide insight into some of the key changes that will come with the ninth major version of AnyLogic. Here, we will demonstrate the creation of flowcharts: in the new version, they are easier to create and edit.

A new experiment in AnyLogic 8.7.4 links to Pathmind’s reinforcement learning (RL) platform, helping simulation modelers and artificial intelligence practitioners lever the synergy between simulation and AI. For large-scale and complex systems, solutions utilizing the Pathmind RL platform are outperforming well-established heuristics.

This blogpost highlights two industrial case studies from Engineering Group that use the Pathmind RL platform and introduces the integrated AnyLogic Pathmind experiment.

AnyLogic 8.7 and AnyLogic Cloud received updates at the end of March. Here is a quick overview of the improvements in AnyLogic 8.7.3 and AnyLogic Cloud.

New density map function. Now the map can display density not only for the current moment, but also the average for a specified period. For example, you can track the hourly change in the number of people in a store, or the average number of forklifts travelling through a workshop area per shift. To do this, in the map settings, select the Sliding window option in the Time period parameter.

The AnyLogic Cloud version 2.2.x releases have given organizations that use simulation modeling an integrated environment for model management and execution. The new features in these releases upgrade simulation accessibility, security, and performance.

This blog post will look at how simulation models are managed by AnyLogic Cloud and highlight various new features up to the current 2.2.2 release.

We participated in WinterSim 2020 – the largest professional conference dedicated to simulation. During the conference, participants presented and discussed how they use simulation modeling in business and science, and software companies shared simulation modeling product innovations.

Our main presentation this year was about AnyLogic 9.0, a significant update to the simulation modeling software which we will release in 2021. Here are some of the new features to look forward to in the coming 9.x releases...

We have released AnyLogic 8.7 - a new version of the most popular simulation tool for business. You can already download it from our website. In this release, we have expanded the capabilities of the specialized libraries, improved animation, and introduced support for experiments with AI-powered models.

And, as with every release, we have improved 2D and 3D animation so that they work faster and more smoothly, this release is no exception. Start using AnyLogic 8.7 today! Get the download and try the new features in action!

Upcoming features and functionality for AnyLogic 9 were previewed alongside AnyLogic 8.7 and AnyLogic Cloud developments at the online AnyLogic User Experience with MaxRad Software.

AnyLogic 9 will be a major update and many new details were revealed during the session from The AnyLogic Company CEO, Andrei Borshchev, Principle Software Engineer, Nikolai Churkov, and Head of AnyLogic Cloud Development, Alexander Rakulenko.

Here is the presentation recording with a follow-up question and answer session.
