Simphony is part of a suite of software known as the Repast Suite. This software is distributed by the Argonne National Laboratory. Repast Simphony is an agent‐based modeling software designed to organize, monitor, and record the movements of agents in a given environment.

The system works as a shell, in that Simphony first executes its own visualization system, and then executes the provided environmental code within its own framework. Simphony also provides its own feedback for errors in code running within its environment for the purpose of debugging. It should be noted that errors in environmental code will not propagate out to the Java environment being used to run Simphony, so users should be aware of locating the feedback within Simphony itself.
