Our mission is to help computational modelers develop, document, and share their computational models in accordance with community standards and good open science and software engineering practices. Model authors can publish their model source code in the Computational Model Library with narrative documentation as well as metadata that supports open science and emerging norms that facilitate software citation, computational reproducibility / frictionless reuse, and interoperability. Model authors can also request private peer review of their computational models. Models that pass peer review receive a DOI once published.
All users of models published in the library must cite model authors when they use and benefit from their code.
Please check out our model publishing tutorial and feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns about publishing your model(s) in the Computational Model Library.

Private forest owner management behavior using social interactions, information flow, and peer-to-peer n
Jessica Leahy Emily Silver Huff Aaron R Weiskittel Caroline L Noblet David Hiebeler | Published Tuesday, October 13, 2015This theoretical model includes forested polygons and three types of agents: forest landowners, foresters, and peer leaders. Agent rules and characteristics were parameterized from existing literature and an empirical survey of forest landowners.
Cultural Group Selection of Sustainable Institutions
Timothy Waring Paul Smaldino Sandra H Goff | Published Wednesday, June 10, 2015 | Last modified Tuesday, August 04, 2015We develop a spatial, evolutionary model of the endogenous formation and dissolution of groups using a renewable common pool resource. We use this foundation to measure the evolutionary pressures at different organizational levels.
Demographic microsimulation for individuals and couples
Sabine Zinn | Published Wednesday, January 14, 2015The simulation model conducts fine-grained population projection by specifying life course dynamics of individuals and couples by means of traditional demographic microsimulation and by using agent-based modeling for mate matching.
Effect of communication in irrigation games
Jacopo A. Baggio Marco Janssen | Published Wednesday, January 14, 2015 | Last modified Wednesday, August 09, 2017The model includes different formulations how agents make decisions in irrigation games and this is compared with empirical data. The aim is to test different theoretical models, especially explaining effect of communication.
Collective Decision Making for Ecological Restoration version 2.0
Dean Massey Moira Zellner Cristy Watkins Jeremy Brooks Kristen Ross Lynne M Westphal | Published Wednesday, November 19, 2014CoDMER v. 2.0 was parameterized with ethnographic data from organizations dealing with prescribed fire and seeding native plants, to advance theory on how collective decisions emerge in ecological restoration.
Peer reviewed Hohokam Trade Networks Model
Joshua Watts | Published Sunday, October 26, 2014The Hohokam Trade Networks Model focuses on key features of the Hohokam economy to explore how differences in trade network topologies may show up in the archaeological record. The model is set in the Phoenix Basin of central Arizona, AD 200-1450.
A minimal assumption based agent based simulation model of the emergence of technological innovation
Yuan Zhao Roland Ortt Bernhard Katzy | Published Sunday, October 19, 2014This simulation model is to simulate the emergence of technological innovation processes from the hypercycles perspective.
A Complex Model of Voter Turnout
Bruce Edmonds Laurence Lessard-Phillips Ed Fieldhouse | Published Monday, October 13, 2014 | Last modified Tuesday, August 18, 2015This is a complex “Data Integration Model”, following a “KIDS” rather than a “KISS” methodology - guided by the available evidence. It looks at the complex mix of social processes that may determine why people vote or not.
Opinion Dynamics Under Intergroup Conflict Escalation
Meysam Alizadeh Alin Coman Michael Lewis Katia Sycara | Published Friday, March 14, 2014 | Last modified Wednesday, October 29, 2014We develop an agent-based model to explore the effect of perceived intergroup conflict escalation on the number of extremists. The proposed model builds on the 2D bounded confidence model proposed by Huet et al (2008).
Peer reviewed An agent-based model to identify management practices, integrity and performance in Kenya’s and Ghana’s Water Service Delivery
Georg Holtz Claudia Pahl-Wostl Francesc Bellaubi | Published Sunday, March 09, 2014 | Last modified Tuesday, July 15, 2014The ABM looks at how the performance of Water Service Delivery is affected by the relation between management practices and integrity in terms of transparency, accountability and participation
