An applet simulating a flock of birds using three
steering behaviors:
1. Separation: steer to avoid crowding local flockmates.
2. Alignment: steer towards the average heading of local
flockmates.
3. Cohesion: steer to move toward the average position of
local flockmates.
WebMol

enter the PDB number of the molecule he wishes to view.
The user can rotate the molecule and zoom in and out of the
picture.
Earth Science
Blue-Skies for Java
United States interactive weather map.
Physics
Computational Physics.
Problem Solving With Computers
This is a new book by Rubin Landau and Manuel Paez
containing computational physics Java
applets
Mathematics
Math Wizards
This is the Java implementation of a Matlab clone.
It uses syntax very similar to Matlab.
3D Plotter
This is an extensive 3D plotter. It allows plots using trig
functions, sqrt(), log() and many other functions. It is a
very flexible graphic program, allowing zoom and scaling.
Buffon's Needle
A Java applet that estimates the value of Pi using the
