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.
Simulating the Ridesharing Economy: The Individual Agent Metro-Washington Area Ridesharing Model (IAMWARM)
Joseph A. E. Shaheen | Published Thu Jan 27 19:16:34 2022This is a ridesharing model (Uber/Lyft) of the larger Washington DC metro area. The model can be modified (Netlogo 6.x) relatively easily and be adapted to any metro area. Please cite generously (this was a lot of work) and please cite the paper, not the comses model.

Eliminating hepatitis C virus as a public health threat among HIV-positive men who have sex with men
Nick Scott Mark Stoove David P Wilson Olivia Keiser Carol El-Hayek Joseph Doyle Margaret Hellard | Published Wed Oct 12 02:50:09 2016 | Last modified Sun Dec 16 02:16:02 2018We compare three model estimates for the time and treatment requirements to eliminate HCV among HIV-positive MSM in Victoria, Australia: a compartmental model; an ABM parametrized by surveillance data; and an ABM with a more heterogeneous population.
Environmental uncertainty affects the optimal structure of information-sharing networks
Takao Sasaki Marco Janssen Stephen Pratt Zachary Joseph Shaffer | Published Mon Mar 16 12:02:32 2015We used a computer simulation to measure how well different network structures (fully connected, small world, lattice, and random) find and exploit resource peaks in a variable environment.
The Travel-tour case study
Christophe Sibertin-Blanc Françoise Adreit Joseph El Gemayel | Published Sun May 19 17:52:35 2013 | Last modified Fri Jun 14 08:56:29 2013This model describes and analyses the Travel-Tour Case study.
Linear recruitment leads to allocation and flexibility in collective foraging by ants
Zachary Joseph Shaffer Takao Sasaki Stephen Pratt | Published Thu Jul 11 12:52:13 2013 | Last modified Thu Sep 5 16:27:50 2013Ants in the genus Temnothorax use tandem runs (rather than pheromone trails) to recruit to food sources. This model explores the collective consequences of this linear recruitment (as opposed to highly nonlinear pheromone trails).
A simple behavioral model predicts the emergence of complex animal hierarchies
Takao Sasaki Clint A Penick Zachary Joseph Shaffer Stephen Pratt Jürgen Liebig | Published Tue Dec 22 06:00:36 2015We used our model to test how different combinations of dominance interactions present in H. saltator could result in linear, despotic, or shared hierarchies.
Interplay between stakeholders of the management of a river
Christophe Sibertin-Blanc Pascal Roggero Bertrand Baldet | Published Wed Nov 12 13:06:56 2014This model describes and analyses the outcomes of the confrontation of interests, some conflicting, some common, about the management of a small river in SW France
Foundress dilemma model
Zachary Joseph Shaffer Takao Sasaki Brian Haney Marco Janssen Stephen Pratt Jennifer Fewell | Published Thu Jul 28 01:37:28 2016A haystack-style model of group selection to capture the essential features of colony foundation for queens of the ant based on observation of the ant Pogonomyrmex californicus.
