Numerus Simulation Architecture

Numerus supports a multi-level architecture comprised of Simulators. The lowest level atomic simulator is called a Capsule, and it is composed of simulation components (Stocks, Flows, etc.). Structured simulators contain other simulators as elements. The simplest structured simulator is the Chip, which wraps a Capsule for insertion as a component in a parent Capsule.

Aggregators

Other structured simulators are called aggregators since they bind together multiple Capsule elements in a specific topology. Currently there are 5 aggregators: CellMatrix, AgentVector, SimWorld, NodeNetwork and NetWorld.
