The article offers information on computer simulations of language competitions. The Language Evolution and Computational Biology Web site posted several papers regarding computational linguistics. Researchers have simulated the creation of numerous languages in a model that can switch from rare to widespread languages. The Viviane model describes the colonization of a continent as being equal to a square lattice of people who originally speak one or zero language.
