A Multi-Run Simulation Environment
for Quality Assurance and
Scenario Analyses



SimEnv is a multi-run simulation environment that focuses on evaluation and usage of models with large and multi-dimensional output mainly for quality assurance matters and scenario analyses using sampling techniques.

Interfacing models to the simulation environment is supported for a number of model programming languages by minimal source code modifications and in general at the shell script level. Pre-defined experiment types are the backbone of SimEnv, applying standardised numerical sampling schemes for model parameters, initial or boundary values, or driving force spaces. The resulting multi-run experiment can be performed sequentially or in parallel. Interactive experiment post-processing makes use of built-in operators, optionally supplemented by user-defined and composed operators. Operator chains are applied on model output and reference data to navigate and post-process in the combined sample and model output space. Resulting multi-dimensional post-processor quality assurance measures can be evaluated within SimEnv by advanced visualization techniques.
