Computational Model Library

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.

ForagerNet3_Demography: A Non-Spatial Model of Hunter-Gatherer Demography

Andrew White | Published Thursday, October 17, 2013 | Last modified Thursday, October 17, 2013

ForagerNet3_Demography is a non-spatial ABM for exploring hunter-gatherer demography. Key methods represent birth, death, and marriage. The dependency ratio is an imporant variable in many economic decisions embedded in the methods.

Our aim is to show effects of group living when only low-level cognition is assumed, such as pattern recognition needed for normal functioning, without assuming individuals have knowledge about others around them or warn them actively.
The model is of a group of vigilant foragers staying within a patch, under attack by a predator. The foragers use attentional scanning for predator detection, and flee after detection. This fleeing action constitutes a visual cue to danger, and can be received non-attentionally by others if it occurs within their limited visual field. The focus of this model is on the effectiveness of this non-attentional visual information reception.
A blind angle obstructing cue reception caused by behaviour can exist in front, morphology causes a blind angle in the back. These limitations are represented by two visual field shapes. The scan for predators is all-around, with distance-dependent detection; reception of flight cues is limited by visual field shape.
Initial parameters for instance: group sizes, movement, vision characteristics for predator detection and for cue reception. Captures (failure), number of times the information reached all individuals at the same time (All-fled, success), and several other effects of the visual settings are recorded.

Consumats on a network

Marco Janssen | Published Tuesday, January 14, 2020 | Last modified Sunday, June 28, 2026

Consumer agents make choices which products to choose using the consumat approach. In this approach agents will make choices using deliberation, repetition, imitation or social comparison dependent on the level of need satisfaction and uncertainty.
The model is discussed in Introduction to Agent-Based Modeling by Marco Janssen. For more information see https://intro2abm.com/

WaterScape

Erin Bohensky | Published Monday, February 06, 2012 | Last modified Saturday, April 27, 2013

The WaterScape is an agent-based model of the South African water sector. This version of the model focuses on potential barriers to learning in water management that arise from interactions between human perceptions and social-ecological system conditions.

This work aims at describing and simulating the (social) game around the production of potato seeds in Venezuela. It shows the effect of the identification of some actors with the production of native potato seeds (e.g., Venezuelan State´s low ident)

The Non-Deterministic model of affordable housing Negotiations (NoD-Neg) is designed for generating hypotheses about the possible outcomes of negotiating affordable housing obligations in new developments in England. By outcomes we mean, the probabilities of failing the negotiation and/or the different possibilities of agreement.
The model focuses on two negotiations which are key in the provision of affordable housing. The first is between a developer (DEV) who is submitting a planning application for approval and the relevant Local Planning Authority (LPA) who is responsible for reviewing the application and enforcing the affordable housing obligations. The second negotiation is between the developer and a Registered Social Landlord (RSL) who buys the affordable units from the developer and rents them out. They can negotiate the price of selling the affordable units to the RSL.
The model runs the two negotiations on the same development project several times to enable agents representing stakeholders to apply different negotiation tactics (different agendas and concession-making tactics), hence, explore the different possibilities of outcomes.
The model produces three types of outputs: (i) histograms showing the distribution of the negotiation outcomes in all the simulation runs and the probability of each outcome; (ii) a data file with the exact values shown in the histograms; and (iii) a conversation log detailing the exchange of messages between agents in each simulation run.

Aquaponics & Multitrophic System Simulation

derrickatasu | Published Friday, September 25, 2026 | Last modified Thursday, October 08, 2026

An agent-based model built in NetLogo that simulates a closed-loop recirculating aquaponics and integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA) ecosystem, modeling the complex dynamics between aquatic species, vermaculture, and hydroponic plant beds. This model captures the operational mechanics of a complex, sustainable production network. It tracks nutrient flows, water recirculation pathways, biological growth stages, and environmental feedback penalties (such as nutrient toxicity or starvation) across multiple specialized tanks and grow beds. Model Architecture & HabitatsAquatic Subsystem: Duckweed Tank, Breeding Tank, Fry Tank, Fingerling Tank, Adult Tank, and a Holding Tank for harvested fish. Benthic & Waste Management: Crawdad Tank 1 & 2 for bottom-feeding and waste processing, alongside a Vermaculture node populated by composting worms. Hydroponic Subsystem: Five sequential Grow Beds and a recirculating loop feeding back into the system. Key Agent DynamicsWater Flow Visualization: Active links between tanks spawn animated droplet agents that visually simulate recirculating water dynamics across the network. Biological Growth & Aging: Fish and plants progress through age-based development thresholds governed by species-specific parameters. Feedback Loops:Toxicity Penalty: Excess nutrients (nutrient-per-day > 80) slow fish growth rates by 50%. Starvation Penalty: Insufficient nutrient levels (nutrient-per-day < 30) delay plant maturation by 50%. Interface Controlsfish-type Chooser: Selects the primary aquatic species (Tilapia, Channel Catfish, Trout, Goldfish), altering base growth thresholds. plant-type Chooser: Selects the cultivated crop (Lettuce, Basil, Tomatoes, Mint). nutrient-per-day Slider: Manages daily nutrient input to balance system load and avoid toxicity or starvation thresholds. Dashboard Plot: Real-time tracking of total-fish-harvested and total-plants-harvested.

Expectation-Based Bayesian Belief Revision

C Merdes Momme Von Sydow Ulrike Hahn | Published Monday, June 19, 2017 | Last modified Monday, August 06, 2018

This model implements a Bayesian belief revision model that contrasts an ideal agent in possesion of true likelihoods, an agent using a fixed estimate of trusting its source of information, and an agent updating its trust estimate.

A flexible framework for Agent-Based Models (ABM), the ‘epiworldR’ package provides methods for prototyping disease outbreaks and transmission models using a ‘C++’ backend, making it very fast. It supports multiple epidemiological models, including the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS), Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR), Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed (SEIR), and others, involving arbitrary mitigation policies and multiple-disease models. Users can specify infectiousness/susceptibility rates as a function of agents’ features, providing great complexity for the model dynamics. Furthermore, ‘epiworldR’ is ideal for simulation studies featuring large populations.

This ABM simulates opinions on a topic (originally contested infrastructures) through the interactions between paired agents and based on the sociopsychological assumptions of social judgment theory (SJT; Sherif & Hovland, 1961).
