<h3>About STEM</h3>

<p>The Spatiotemporal Epidemiological Modeler (STEM) tool is designed to help scientists and public health
officials create and use spatial and temporal models of emerging infectious diseases. These models can aid
in understanding and potentially preventing the spread of such diseases.
</p>
<p>
Policymakers responsible for strategies to contain disease and prevent epidemics need an accurate understanding
of disease dynamics and the likely outcomes of preventive actions. In an increasingly connected world with extremely
efficient global transportation links, the vectors of infection can be quite complex. STEM facilitates the development
of advanced mathematical models, the creation of flexible models involving multiple populations (species) and
interactions between diseases, and a better understanding of epidemiology.
</p>
<p>
STEM is designed to make it easy for developers and researchers to plug in their choice of models. It comes with
a large number of existing compartment models and a new model building framework that allows users to rapidly extend existing models or to create entirely new models.
The model building framework provides a simple graphical users interface and automatically generates all of the model code and hot injects the code into STEM at runtime.
In many cases, no knowledge of Eclipse or Java is required. The STEM code generator even allows users to build models affected by changes in climate data.
</p>
<p>
Any STEM model can be run
either stochastically or deterministically - simply by switching between solver plugins. Users can choose between many different numerical solvers of ordinary differential equations
(including finite difference, Runge-Kutta, 4 solvers from The Apache Commons Mathematics Library, and Stochastic). The stochastic solver computes integer (individual) based
transitions picking randomly from a binomial distribution (also from Apach Math). Simulation results can be output with a choice of pluggable loggers, including delimiting files, video loggers, and map loggers.
STEM can be used to study quite complex models (for example a model of Dengue Fever with 51 differential equations) and can run global scale simulations. <a href="http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/STEM">Click here</a> for the complete STEM documentation.
