The Matrix ABM: An Agent Based Modeling Framework

Project description

The Matrix ABM is an agent based modeling framework for developing large scale social simulations that can run on distributed computing platforms.

Full documentation

The full documentation is available at docs/source/index.rst

The Matrix ABM depends on mpi4py which requires a MPI implementation and compiler tools be installed on the system.

Installing Open MPI and mpi4py inside a conda environment

To create a new virtual environment with conda, have Anaconda/Miniconda setup on your system. Installation instructions for Anaconda can be found here. After installation of Anaconda/Miniconda execute the following commands:

$ conda create -n matrixabm -c conda-forge python=3 openmpi mpi4py

The above command creates a new conda environment called matrixabm with python, openmpi and mpi4py installed.

The following commands assume you are inside the above conda environment.

Building the documentation from source

To build and view the documentation as HTML, execute the following commands:

$ git clone https://github.com/NSSAC/matrixabm.git
$ cd matrixabm
$ pip install --editable .
$ pip install -r dev_requirements.txt
$ make -C docs
$ <BROWSER-COMMAND> docs/build/html/index.html
