GLEaMviz Simulator: new software release and BMC publication March 4, 2011

A new release of the GLEaMviz Simulator tool has been published! The software, publicly available, allows users to simulate realistic epidemic spreading scenarios at the global scale. The updated version offers an improved interface for the visualization of simulations' rsults: the number of new cases is displayed at the cell-level, instead of basin-level used in the previous versions, improving the spatial resolution. The visualization can be extensively customized by means of a graphical interface within the results window itself.
