The Repast Suite is a family of advanced, free, and open source agent-based modeling and simulation platforms that have collectively been under continuous development for over 15 years:
Repast for High Performance Computing 2.2.0, released on 30 September 2016, is a lean and expert-focused C++-based modeling system that is designed for use on large computing clusters and supercomputers.
Note that the above module files also loads GCC 6.2.0 compiler and either MPICH-3.1.4 or Open MPI 2.1.1.
Repast HPC 2.2.0 can be activated using the module file:
The script requests four CPU cores using the MPI parallel environment mpi with 2 GB of real memory per CPU core. The requested runtime is 6 hours.
Users are encouraged to write their own batch submission scripts. The following is an example batch submission script, my_job.sh , to run the zombie_model example in parallel and which is submitted to the queue by typing qsub my_job.sh .
