+# TimeNETOptimizationEnvironment
+Batch simulation of SCPN with TimeNET and parameter based optimization
+
+
+## Features
+* Batch simulation of SCPN with TimeNET 4.2 for design space exploration
+* Simulation based Optimization using several heuristics
+  * Hill Climbing
+  * Simulated Annealing
+  * Artifical Bee Colony
+  * Charged System Search
+  * Mean-Variance Optimization
+* Testing optimization on cached simulation data
+* Benchmark functions to use instead of live simulation
+  * Matya
+  * Schefel
+  * Sphere
+  * Ackley
+* Result plotting with R
+
+## System Requirements
+* Operating Systems: Windows, Linux, OSX (maybe others)
+* Java 1.7 or newer
+* TimeNET 4.2 or newer (https://www2.tu-ilmenau.de/downloadtimenet)
+* R (http://www.r-project.org/) with some libs, mentioned in about-dialog
