| <h1>Epidemic View</h1> |
| <p>The <em>Epidemic View</em> displays a dynamic collection of |
| "simulation controls" that match the set of "active" Simulations. Each |
| control shows the name of the Scenario and that status of the |
| Simulation, including its "state" (either "Running" or "Paused"), the |
| current "time" in the simulation, a progress bar. Each control also has |
| five buttons that control the corresponding Simulation: |
| <ol> |
| <li>"Run" Begin running the Simulation.</li> |
| <li>"Pause" Pause the running of the Simulation. This maintains |
| the current state of the simulation.</li> |
| <li>"Reset" Reset all state information in the Simulation back to |
| initial values and set the state of the Simulation to "Paused"</li> |
| <li>"Step" Run the simulation for a single cycle and then set the |
| state of the Simulation to "Paused"</li> |
| <li>"Stop" Stop all execution of the Simulation and destroy all |
| state information. The Simulation will be removed from the system.</li> |
| </ol> |
| </p> |
| <p>To use the Epidemic view:<ol> |
| <li>Enter the <a href="../perspectives/analysis.html">Analysis Perspective</a></li> |
| <li>Click on the Epidemic Tab</li> |
| <li>Use the Select Folder button to chose the folder containing the epidemic data |
| you wish to study. The files should have the following |
| <a href="csvloggerview.html"> format.</a></li> |
| <li>Click Aggregate Data. This will automatically create two aggregated data |
| files based on the data in the original scenario folder. These file names |
| will appear in the<br> |
| text fields for Scenario Aggregate File and Scenario Incidence file. |
| The aggregated data will be written to the 'aggregate' and 'incidence' |
| subfolders respectively <br> |
| (these will be created if they do not exist). The files will be named based |
| on the input scenario folder. The aggregate data is the running integral or |
| sum over time <br> |
| of all compartment data (S,E,I,R) over all locations in the input scenario |
| folder. The incidence data contains differential data including incidence |
| (new cases at time t), <br> |
| new births, deaths, etc. Incidence data will be estimated if it does not |
| exist in the original scenario data files. Note, if you already have |
| aggregate data you can also input<br> |
| these files manually.</li> |
| <li>On the left hand side the Epidemic view will show the integrated state |
| data (S,E,I,R, etc). Differential data will appear on the right hand chart. |
| To toggle between linear<br> |
| and logarithmic scales or to change what variables are plotted just right |
| click and use the custom dialog that will appear. </li> |
| </ol> |
