Configuration [n][p] structures / Packing p points in an n-dimensional sphere maximizing distance:
Press the start button to start a new optimal packing structure based on randomly distributed points.
Use the p- and p+ buttons to change the no. of points and the n- and n+ buttons to change the no. of dimensions. Use the law button to toggle between 1.R^(n-1) law (Fast!) and default 1/R law (Slow, but shows more frequently optimal results for multistable configurations!) Load the source here
Note: Because the preceding applet uses the Swing 1.1 API, it requires Java Plug-in 1.1.2 or Java Plug-in 1.2. It won't work with Java Plug-in 1.1.1 or uncustomized 1.1 browsers.
