Halite II is an open-source challenge framework that hosts turn-based strategy matches between user-written bots. Each turn, agents receive a map state, issue movement and attack commands, and compete to control the most territory. The platform includes a game server, map parser, and visualization tool. Developers can test locally, refine heuristics, optimize performance under time constraints, and submit to an online leaderboard. The system supports iterative bot improvements, multi-agent cooperation, and custom strategy research in a standardized environment.

Open ACN is a robust AI platforms and frameworks solution designed for building decentralized multi-agent systems. It offers a suite of consensus protocols tailored for agent cooperation, ensuring reliable decision-making across geodistributed nodes. The framework includes modular communication layers, customizable strategy plug-ins, and a built-in simulation environment for end-to-end testing. Developers can define agent behaviors, deploy across Linux, macOS, Windows, or Docker, and leverage real-time logging and monitoring tools. By providing extensible APIs and seamless integration with existing machine learning models, Open ACN simplifies complex orchestration tasks, fostering interoperable, resilient autonomous networks suitable for applications in robotics, supply chain automation, decentralized finance, and IoT.
