Social Simulation Software

In accordance with best practice in Social Simulation, we publish models and other software under open source licences, using standard online repositories, especially CoMSES Net's Computational Modelling Library, GitHub and GitLab.

Models

• Rural Industries Supply Chain model used to explore Brexit scenarios
• Traffic simulation model of Aberdeen and surrounding area
• FEARLUS-SPOMM model to simulate scenarios for improving biodiversity in agricultural landscapes. Further resources available on GitHub.

Tools

• NetLogo extension enabling OWL ontologies of a model's state and structure to be automatically exported from the code
• NetLogo extension providing a bitstring datatype
• NetLogo extension using GNU's Pretty Good Privacy toolsuite to allow interaction with encrypted datafiles
• NetLogo extension providing access to the Java Virtual Machine management API for diagnostic purposes
• NetLogo toolkit of scripts for working with NetLogo models
• Java program rendering OWL ontologies in DOT (a format suitable for automated graph visualization using Graphviz)
• Implementation of IEEE floating point instructions stipulated in standard IEEE 754 (in C), and usually missing from linux implementations.
