About the CoMSES Model Library more info
CoMSES Net maintains cyberinfrastructure to foster FAIR data principles for access to and (re)use of computational models. Model authors can publish their model code in the Computational Model Library with documentation, metadata, and data dependencies and support these FAIR data principles as well as best practices for software citation. Model authors can also request that their model code be peer reviewed to receive a DOI. 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 archive tutorial or contact us if you have any questions or concerns about archiving your model.
CoMSES Net also maintains a curated database of over 7500 publications of agent-based and individual based models with additional metadata on availability of code and bibliometric information on the landscape of ABM/IBM publications that we welcome you to explore.
03 MppLab V1.09 – Maximum Power Principle Laboratory
Garvin Boyle | Published Sat Apr 15 13:51:24 2017Using webs of replicas of Atwood’s Machine, we explore implications of the Maximum Power Principle. This is one of a series of models exploring the dynamics of sustainable economics – PSoup, ModEco, EiLab, OamLab, MppLab, TpLab, CmLab.

Peer reviewed FishCensus
Miguel Pais | Published Tue Dec 6 17:39:57 2016 | Last modified Thu Feb 9 11:45:23 2017The FishCensus model simulates underwater visual census methods, where a diver estimates the abundance of fish. A separate model is used to shape species behaviours and save them to a file that can be shared and used by the counting model.
An adaptive model of homing pigeons: A genetic algorithm approach
Francis Oloo Gudrun Wallentin | Published Fri Jan 27 09:42:22 2017In this model, we simulate the navigation behavior of homing pigeons. Specifically we use genetic algorithms to optimize the navigation and flocking parameters of pigeon agents.
REHAB: A Role Playing Game to Explore the Influence of Knowledge and Communication on Natural Resources Management
Christophe Le Page Anne Dray Pascal Perez Claude Garcia | Published Mon Jul 13 10:58:19 2015 | Last modified Mon Jul 13 16:59:44 2015REHAB has been designed as an ice-breaker in courses dealing with ecosystem management and participatory modelling. It helps introducing the two main tools used by the Companion Modelling approach, namely role-playing games and agent-based models.
How to not get stuck – an ant model showing how negative feedback due to crowding maintains flexibility in ant foraging
Tomer Czaczkes | Published Thu Dec 17 10:55:16 2015Positive feedback can lead to “trapping” in local optima. Adding a simple negative feedback effect, based on ant behaviour, prevents this trapping
Coupled Housing and Land Markets (CHALMS)
Nicholas Magliocca Virginia Mcconnell Margaret Walls | Published Fri Nov 2 20:20:30 2012 | Last modified Mon Oct 27 16:23:37 2014CHALMS simulates housing and land market interactions between housing consumers, developers, and farmers in a growing ex-urban area.

Universal Darwinism in Dutch Greenhouses
Julia Kasmire | Published Wed May 9 13:40:57 2012 | Last modified Sat Apr 27 20:18:51 2013An ABM, derived from a case study and a series of surveys with greenhouse growers in the Westland, Netherlands. Experiments using this model showshow that the greenhouse horticulture industry displays diversity, adaptive complexity and an uneven distribution, which all suggest that the industry is an evolving system.
WeDiG Sim
Reza Shamsaee | Published Mon May 14 13:07:12 2012 | Last modified Sat Apr 27 20:18:53 2013WeDiG Sim- Weighted Directed Graph Simulator - is an open source application that serves to simulate complex systems. WeDiG Sim reflects the behaviors of those complex systems that put stress on scale-free, weightedness, and directedness. It has been implemented based on “WeDiG model” that is newly presented in this domain. The WeDiG model can be seen as a generalized version of “Barabási-Albert (BA) model”. WeDiG not only deals with weighed directed systems, but also it can handle the […]
