ModSim, Model simulator software, Version 1.0

ModSim is a tool designed to for the study of the dynamical properties of models in the field of population biology and ecology. It is also useful in a wide range of other scientific disciplines where ordinary differential models are used, such as engineering, mechanics, economics, chemistry, etc.

ModSim can be used by researchers and by students and instructors to supplement courses in dynamical systems or ordinary differential equations. It is a friendly tool that can be used by scientists who are not mathematicians but who would like to benefit from the power of modeling. It is based on the simple principle of "write and play" - just write a model down and play with it and you can immediately see the results on the screen. Thus ModSim is not only a scientific tool but also a fascinating toy, ideal for the purpose of teaching.

Some of the features of ModSim:

A very compact and specialized program, it comes on a single floppy diskette.

The equations are written in a natural way - no need to learn a new language. Plotting a function can be as simple as entering "x = sin t". More examples.

Dynamic visualization of the computations, watch the results as the computations are being performed.

Designed to solve systems with delays.
