Our mission is to help computational modelers develop, document, and share their computational models in accordance with community standards and good open science and software engineering practices. Model authors can publish their model source code in the Computational Model Library with narrative documentation as well as metadata that supports open science and emerging norms that facilitate software citation, computational reproducibility / frictionless reuse, and interoperability. Model authors can also request private peer review of their computational models. Models that pass peer review receive a DOI once published.
All users of models published in the library must cite model authors when they use and benefit from their code.
Please check out our model publishing tutorial and feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns about publishing your model(s) in the Computational Model Library.

3spire is an ABM where farming households make management decisions aimed at satisficing along the aspirational dimensions: food self-sufficiency, income, and leisure. Households decision outcomes depend on their social networks, knowledge, assets, household needs, past management, and climate/market trends
IDEAL: Agent-Based Model of Residential Land Use Change where the choice of new residential development in based on the Ideal-point decision rule.
The purpose of this model is to study the evolution of cooperation when agents are endowed with a limited set of receptors, a set of elementary actions and a neural network agents use to make decision
In the model agents make decisions to contribute of not to the public good of a group, and cooperators may punish, at a cost, defectors. The model is based on group selection, and is used to understan
This model allows for oneshot negotiations in the Colored Trails setting. Two allocator agents simultaneously make an offer to a responder agent, who chooses which of these offers to accept, or to reject both offers. The code allows for allocator allocator agents of different orders of theory of mind reasoning to play against one another.
The purpose of this model is to help understand how prehistoric societies adapted to the prehistoric American southwest landscape. In the American southwest there is a high degree of environmental var
The objective of this agent-based model is to test different language education orientations and their consequences for the EU population in terms of linguistic disenfranchisement, that is, the inability of citizens to understand EU documents and parliamentary discussions should their native language(s) no longer be official. I will focus on the impact of linguistic distance and language learning. Ideally, this model would be a tool to help EU policy makers make informed decisions about language practices and education policies, taking into account their consequences in terms of diversity and linguistic disenfranchisement. The model can be used to force agents to make certain choices in terms of language skills acquisition. The user can then go on to compare different scenarios in which language skills are acquired according to different rationales. The idea is that, by forcing agents to adopt certain language learning strategies, the model user can simulate policies promoting the acquisition of language skills and get an idea of their impact. In this way the model allows not only to sketch various scenarios of the evolution of language skills among EU citizens, but also to estimate the level of disenfranchisement in each of these scenarios.
This agent-based aquaponics simulation models the biological resilience and complex dynamics of a closed-loop agricultural system. Designed for educational use and agricultural research, the model helps aquaponic designers, farmers, and hobbyists understand systemic dynamics and stress-test species configurations prior to a physical build. The simulation dynamically models the nitrogen cycle by tracking aquatic bio-loads, bacterial filtration, and plant nutrient uptake. Utilizing real-world biological metrics from the Loyola Global Aquatic Excrement Dataset, the model calculates species-specific ammonia excretion rates (toxicity) for various aquatic life, including Trout, Tilapia, and Goldfish. Nitrifying bacteria agents convert this toxicity into usable nitrates, which are then absorbed by specific crop agents—such as Tomatoes, Swiss Chard, or Lettuce—at variable rates. Key features include dynamic stochastic harvesting, measurable agent health, vermaculture and crawdad integration, and reactive biological mitigators like emergency duckweed buffering. The system also introduces chaotic environmental variables, allowing users to test the agricultural setup’s resilience against random shocks like bio-filter pump failures and temperature crashes. This model is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 (GPL-3.0) to encourage collaborative improvement within the academic and farming communities.
Purpose of the model is to perform a “virtual experiment” to test the predator satiation hypothesis, advanced in literature to explain the mast seeding phenomenon.
InformalCity, a spatially explicit agent-based model, simulates an artificial city and allows for testing configurations of urban upgrading schemes in informal settlements.
