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.
Population aggregation in ancient arid environments
Marco Janssen | Published Tue May 4 18:26:43 2010 | Last modified Sat Apr 27 20:18:43 2013The 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
Peer reviewed Strategy with Externalities
J Applegate Glenn Hoetker | Published Thu Dec 21 15:12:54 2017The SWE models firms search behaviour as the performance landscape shifts. The shift represents society’s pricing of negative externalities, and the performance landscape is an NK structure. The model is written in NetLogo.
Managing Connectivity: insights from modelling species interactions accross multiple scales in an idealized landscape
Jacopo Baggio Kehinde Salau Michael Schoon Marco Janssen | Published Mon Oct 1 21:34:50 2012 | Last modified Mon Jan 20 18:21:38 2014The model objective’s is to explore the management choice set to uncover which subsets of strategies are most effective at maximizing species coexistence on a fragmented landscape.
Collective Decision Making for Ecological Restoration
Cristy Watkins Dean Massey Jeremy Brooks Kristen Ross Moira Zellner | Published Fri Dec 30 16:30:16 2011 | Last modified Fri Nov 21 04:42:50 2014We present an agent-based model that maps out and simulates the processes by which individuals within ecological restoration organizations communicate and collectively make restoration decisions.
Mobility, Resource Harvesting and Robustness of Social-Ecological Systems
Irene Perez Ibarra | Published Mon Sep 24 16:41:20 2012 | Last modified Sat Apr 27 20:18:39 2013The model is a stylized representation of a social-ecological system of agents moving and harvesting a renewable resource. The purpose is to analyze how mobility affects sustainability. Experiments changing agents’ mobility, landscape and information governments have can be run.
Varying effects of connectivity and dispersal on interacting species dynamics
Kehinde Salau | Published Mon Aug 29 08:01:17 2011 | Last modified Sat Apr 27 20:18:53 2013An agent-based model of species interaction on fragmented landscape is developed to address the question, how do population levels of predators and prey react with respect to changes in the patch connectivity as well as changes in the sharpness of threshold dispersal?
Replication of ECEC model: Environmental Feedback and the Evolution of Cooperation
Pierre Bommel | Published Tue Apr 5 15:09:08 2011 | Last modified Sat Apr 27 20:18:45 2013The model, presented here, is a re-implementation of the Pepper and Smuts’ model : - Pepper, J.W. and B.B.

Model to simulation the landscape of possible shedding games
Marco Janssen | Published Sun May 16 21:16:34 2010 | Last modified Sat Apr 27 20:18:40 2013This model simulates 2048 versions of shedding games and evaluates the consequences on the average length and the difficulty of the game agents experience. The purpose of the model is to understand th
Cumulative effects agent-based model of forestry and hunting
Scott Heckbert | Published Fri Dec 4 12:07:29 2009 | Last modified Sat Apr 27 20:18:28 2013This NetLogo model represents hunters and forestry road development in a spatial landscape. The cumulative effects of multiple resource use is explored.
