Re: [computer-go] Neural Network DB Serialization?

[David Salamon <dls@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you are using Java, you can use Prevayler to do this. It is a very 
simple interface for introducing persistant objects into your system. 
If you are manipulating nets that can be manipluated in ram, this 
should be far faster than a database.

Hope that helps. If you are using Lisp PLOB looks interesting, if you 
are using Smalltalk then I would take a look at Glorp.
