name: aivika version: 1.1 synopsis: A multi-paradigm simulation library description: Aivika is a multi-paradigm simulation library with a strong emphasis on the Discrete Event Simulation (DES) in the first order and System Dynamics (SD) in the second one. . The library has the following features: . * allows defining recursive stochastic differential equations of System Dynamics (unordered as in maths via the recursive do-notation); . * supports the event-driven paradigm of DES as a basic core for implementing other paradigms; . * supports extensively the process-oriented paradigm of DES with an ability to resume, suspend and cancel the discontinuous processes; . * allows working with the resources (you can define your own behaviour or use the predefined queue strategies); . * allows customizing the queues (you can define your own behaviour or use the predefined queue strategies); . * allows defining an infinite stream of data based on the process-oriented computation, where we can define a complex enough behaviour just in a few lines of code; . * allows defining processors (actually, the Haskell arrows) that operate on the infinite streams of data, because of which some models can remind of their high-level graphical representation on the diagram used by visual simulation software tools; . * supports the activity-oriented paradigm of DES; . * supports the basic constructs for the agent-based modeling; . * allows creating combined discrete-continuous models as all parts of the library are very well integrated and this is reflected directly in the type system; . * the arrays of simulation variables are inherently supported (this is mostly a feature of Haskell itself); . * supports the Monte-Carlo simulation; . * the simulation model can depend on external parameters; . * uses extensively the signals to notify the model about changing the reference and variable values; . * allows gathering statistics in time points; . * hides the technical details in high-level simulation monads and even one arrow (some of these monads support the recursive do-notation). . Aivika itself is a light-weight engine with minimal dependencies. However, it has additional packages Aivika Experiment [1] and Aivika Experiment Chart [2] that offer the following features: . * automating the simulation experiments; . * saving the results in CSV files; . * plotting the deviation chart by rule 3-sigma, histogram, time series, XY chart; . * collecting the summary of statistical data; . * parallel execution of the Monte-Carlo simulation; . * have an extensible architecture. . All three libraries were tested on Linux, Windows and OS X. . Please read the PDF document An Introduction to Aivika Simulation Library [3] for more details, although it is outdated and contains a very basic description only. The most powerful features of Aivika are not yet described in this PDF document. . \[1] . \[2] . \[3] . category: Simulation license: BSD3 license-file: LICENSE copyright: (c) 2009-2014.
