We present the open source Astrophysical Multi-purpose Software Environment (AMUSE), a
component library for performing astrophysical simulations involving different physical
domains and scales. It couples existing codes within a Python framework based on a
communication layer using MPI. The interfaces are standardized for each domain and their
implementation based on MPI guarantees that the whole framework is well-suited for
distributed computation. It includes facilities for unit handling and data storage.
Currently it includes codes for gravitational dynamics, stellar evolution, hydrodynamics
and radiative transfer. Within each domain the interfaces to the codes are as similar as
possible. We describe the design and implementation of AMUSE, as well as the main
components and community codes currently supported and we discuss the code interactions
facilitated by the framework. Additionally, we demonstrate how AMUSE can be used to
resolve complex astrophysical problems by presenting example applications
