This tutorial presents the TurtleKit and FiatLux simulation platforms. TurtleKit is dedicated to the simulation of
situated complex systems via the use of multiagent models. This platform relies on the combination
of Logo-like simulation models with high level programming languages (JAVA, Python). We
present the TurtleKit and FiatLux main features and illustrate them through simulations of common Artificial
Life models (termites simulation, game of life, ACO...).

Various aspects of emerging behavior and collective dynamics have been
common themes of a considerable research about complex systems and dynamical
systems over the course of several decades.
The most common tool of quantitative analysis of dynamic properties of various
models of such systems studied in applied mathematics, physics, theoretical biology
and other scientific disciplines is computer simulation. Simulation is usually the
best (and often times, the only) way to gain deeper understanding about the typical,
or expected, behavior of various complex systems of interest, under particular conditions
and assumptions. Theoretical computer science, in contrast, typically tries to address
the worst-case complexity of objects or models of interest.
In this talk, we discuss how theoretical computer science, more specifically its branch known
as computational complexity, has provided many valuable insigths into the worst-case behavior
of various models of dynamical systems studied in statistical physics,
theoretical biology, distributed computing and other areas.
