Re: [Java-player-users] Comparison between Javaclient Player and JADE+Player/Stage

[Leo N. <leo...@gm...>]

Stage is a 2D mobile robot simulation environment. You will be able to test
(simulate) all mobile robot related behaviors, of course.

If we speak about computation power, JADE is writen in Java, so it will be
as powerfull as a Java development (taking into acount that JADE is a piece
of code that may have bugs, and more often, not so optimized code)

I have no idea what development are you thinking of, but definetly i would
do it in Java. Whether to use JADE or not I don't know because I have no
enough info about your project. If you have to develop a computational
intensive long term algorithm I think (although will have people telling
that I'm crazy) that Java is your best choice. I could provide you more
details about why (technical info about the java virtual machine) if you
need.
