User-oriented Extension and Automation of Agent-based Software for Pathogen-specific Modelling of Epidemics
Goals:
- Development of a test-bed to evaluate epidemic- and pandemic intervention strategies for deeper understanding of infection dynamics
- Zoonotic pathogens in humans (i.e. influenza & corona viruses)
- Unidirectional transmission from animal hosts to humans (i.e. hanta viruses)
- Bi-directional transmission (i.e. malaria virus)
- Web-based & code-free modeling environment: Collaboration tool for medical experts, information system experts and policy makers
- Reusable and extensible modular software architecture
- Visual analytics to investigate epidemic scenarios
C3M’s Role:
- Design, application and evaluation of simulation and collaboration tools
- Intermediary for practitioners and software developers
- Solution provider (EpiPredict Tool)
