This prototype represents the first part of D 10. The second part is the prototype of Web Word of Mouth model (WoM). Both prototypes are developed by SICS. It implements the units of actions in the Web Formation Model (WFM).The purpose of this prototype is two folds. First help to understand the requirements and specifications of the simulation environment that is needed to implement the projects models. Second support maintenance, refinements, and improvements of the model itself. In fact, the second part of the deliverable, WoM version 3.7, is a consequence to our understanding about the environment.
In the next version, the implementation will not be related to any model of those two and/or other implemented models. The model designer will be able to configure the simulation experiment to act or behave according to any of the implemented model components. A combination of model behaviors is possible.
In order to run the prototype in your machine you need to:
Download two packages for random number generation, which are: the PRNG and the UNURAN packages
If MS Windows platform, the CYGWIN
package is essential to compile the random number generation packages. See
the instructions in "readme.windows" file.
Download the prototype and compile it. See the instructions in "readme.txt" file.
