Input functionality

1. Simulation controls

Buttons that control stopping, starting, stepping, and pausing of the simulation.

1. Weighting input file

This CSV/XLS file controls the adjustment of the base file to test different scenarios, eg: what if 20% of basefile children have standard of living level 1 (sol1)? The simulation can be run and the results observed.

1. Parameter input file

Variables that control the operation of the statistical predictive models can be specified in an CSV/XLS input file and displayed.

1. R editor

R code that produces output results and analysis can be displayed, edited and executed in a syntax highlighted editor.

Output functionality

1. Navigator

All simulation objects appear in the Navigator including the base file and it’s individual units (children), parameter sets loaded from external files (ie: datasets), output tables from individual runs and combined output tables from all runs, dataframes of the base file and output tables generated in R, and graphs of simulated variables.

1. Graphs

A range of graphs can be produced from base file and simulated variables. Graphs can be Java based, in which case JFreeChart is used, or R based, in which case the complete range of R graphics functionality is available.

1. Output tables

Statistical analysis, performed in Java or R, can be displayed for base and simulated variables in tables and presented to the user for display and export.

1. R console

The base file, and variables simulated in Java, are exposed to R as part of the simulation output dataframe. The full range of R functionality, including any external R packages, can be used to analyse the dataframe via this interactive R console.
