Progress Update

Earlier today I managed to get a defuzzification method working on the Fuzzy Inference System within the application and am now able to return a single crisp numerical value. This value will then be fed into the FuSM. This now means that all the techniques that were going to be implemented within the application have been created and added. Now that these techniques are in place I can focus on making them work together.

More work has continued on the creating of freely growing vegetation within the environment. While in theory the methodology in place for this should work fine, after about 40 new plants have been created the graphics side of the application locks up. The program itself does not die as the console window continues to print of data as the ecosystem ages. A cause and a solution to this problem have yet to be found.

Yesterday I completely re-done the  FIS methodology section as I found some much better research on it. I now have to go back and finish off the methodology for the FIS, writing about the Defuzzification method, and then further update the FuSM.

The implmentation of the environment itself also has to be written up.
