Vensim 5 with SyntheSim

Post by Bob Eberlein »

Ventana Systems is please to announce the release of Vensim
version 5. With the new SyntheSim feature you can overlay
the behavior of your model on the structure (both causal loop
and stock/flow) and see how the behavior changes when you
change parameters. All the model constants get sliders and
as you move the sliders the model simulates and displays the
new behavior. It all happens so fast it allows you to feel
the tactile connection between structure and behavior. It is
a delightful way to build understanding of model behavior and
it works with suprisingly complex models.

More details are available on our web site http://www.vensim.com
SyntheSim is available in Vensim PLE and the Model Reader, though
the ability to automatically cut feedback links by overriding
variable behavior requires the more advanced configurations.
