SpaDES
packageMetapackage for implementing a variety of event-based models, with a focus on
spatially explicit models. These include raster-based, event-based, and
agent-based models. The core simulation components (provided by SpaDES.core)
are built upon a discrete event simulation (DES; see Matloff (2011) ch 7.8.3
https://nostarch.com/artofr.htm) framework that facilitates
modularity, and easily enables the user to include additional functionality by
running user-built simulation modules (see also SpaDES.tools).
Included are numerous tools to visualize rasters and other maps (via quickPlot),
and caching methods for reproducible simulations (via reproducible).
Additional functionality is provided by the suggested SpaDES.addins and
SpaDES.shiny
packages (see below).
