openmpp: An R package for dynamic microsimulation modeling using OpenM++

OpenM++ is a powerful open-source and cross-platform software and domain-specific language to develop, use, and deploy dynamic microsimulations or agent-based models.The openmpp R package provides a programmatic interface to OpenM++ to simplify the process of connecting to local or remote instances with secure user authentication, communicating with web services, creating, managing, and running large-scale and complex microsimulations, performing scalable and reproducible computations, and gathering results for reproducible reporting.

Abstract

OpenM++ is a powerful open-source and cross-platform software and domain-specific language to develop, use, and deploy dynamic microsimulations or agent-based models.The openmpp R package provides a programmatic interface to OpenM++ to simplify the process of connecting to local or remote instances with secure user authentication, communicating with web services, creating, managing, and running large-scale and complex microsimulations, performing scalable and reproducible computations, and gathering results for reproducible reporting.
