Simulation on Demand

Explore your simulations on the fly ,,in the cloud''!

The Model Exploration Service (MES) is an easy to use on-line tool to explore your agent-based simulations at large. With AITIA's non-expensive prepaid scheme, you can flexibly explore the behavior of your simulation on a large number of CPUs (determined by you) with only a few mouse clicks. 

Why spend money on buying and maintaining a computer cluster? Simulate on the fly!

The service can be accessed using MEME, the Model Exploration ModulE tool. Once you have your agent-based model up and running (e.g. using NetLogo, RepastJ, or FABLES), it is only a few clicks in MEME to set up the experiment, and send it to the cloud. Once the simulations are done, MEME also helps you to download and organise the results, and finally to procude charts.

Put it into your research budget!

Amazon-based computational services.

The model exploration service is based on virtual hosts specially prepared for simulation experiments. The virtual hosts are deployed on EC2, the Amazon Elastic Cloud providing a seemingly unlimited computational power for your simulations.
