MCSim
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MCSim is a suite of simulation software. It allows one to design one's own statistical or simulation models, perform Monte Carlo simulations, and Bayesian inference through Markov chain models.

[edit] Description
MCSim is a simulation and statistical inference tool for algebraic or differential equation systems, optimised for performing Monte Carlo analysis. The software is inended to enable the used to perform easy to maintain environment. It comprises a model generator and a simulation engine:
- The model generator facilitates structural model definition and maintenance, while keeping execution time short. The model is coded using a simple grammar, and the generator translates it into C code.
- The simulation engine is a set of routines that are linked to the model in order to produce executable code. The result is that one can run simulations of the structural model under a variety of conditions.
Internally, the software uses the GNU Scientific Library for its numerical calculations.
[edit] History
The project began in 1991 by Don Maszle and Frederic Bois.
