Software/ Programmes
Free available software for the creation of RPs and their quantitative analysis facilitates the spread of their application (no requirement on completeness):
CRP Toolbox 5.5 (by Norbert Marwan)
allows for the creation of RPs, CRPs as well as JRPs, quantification analysis of RPs, CRPs and JRPs includes the new measures of complexity as LAM and TT, time scale alignment tool based on CRPs and further useful tools and methods of nonlinear time series analysis and data preparation are provided, platform independent (for Matlab), both usage of graphical user interface as well as commandline call is possible, a plugin is available enabeling the computation of RPs and RQA of long data series

R package with similar functionality as the TISEAN package
» http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/fNonlinear/index.htmlRCPLOT (by Tom Wouters)
