Working group C – specific results

  • A survey on the current use of simulation software
  • Recommendations on the exchange of know how contained in models
  • A report concerning recommendations on suitable software tools and requirements for further software development

Working Group C: thematic focus

Workshop series on simulation software evaluation

  • Simulation examples performed with different software packages

Workshop series on mathematical tools for data analysis

  • Neural networks
  • Multivariate analysis

Workshop data handling/ preprocessing before simulation
Workshop requirement specifications for future simulation tools

Working Group C: Activities

  • List of criteria for assessment (to be used for each software)
  • Check list of requirements from different software packages versus potential applications
  • Software list is to be evaluated in future workshops
  • Idea: Definition of model descriptions to compare softwares packages
