MASS C++ Updates JENNIFER KOWALSKY, 2015
2
What is MASS? Multi-Agent Spatial Simulation A library for parallelizing simulations and data analysis Uses on a cluster of computing nodes for parallelization The abstraction of an array of Places holding Agents is used for developing programs
3
Why C++? MASS currently exists in three languages, C++, Java, and Cuda. The C++ version was made for performance testing against the other two versions of MASS. Performance tests require the three implementations to have the same feature set. Currently, the C++ version is lagging behind the Java implementation in features.

What I am Currently Working On Reflecting commits made to MASS Java in MASS C++ ◦Can see progress by visiting the MASS C++ Issue trackerMASS C++ Issue tracker ◦And by checking out the develop branch in Git Adding features requested by the MASS Research Group Updating and creating documentation for MASS C++ ◦Currently have MASS C++ Developer’s Guide ◦Doxygen for Code Documentation
5
Features to be Implemented 44 commits to be reflected from MASS Java ◦Most are small changes ◦Some involve extending MASS C++’s feature set ◦Others change MASS C++’s API and are being deferred until next quarter ◦Some are a result of using Maven in MASS Java and are currently not relevant Major Features to be Implemented before February 23 ◦Changes to ExchangeAll to implement neighbors ◦Changes to the Agent Bag ◦Changes related to the debugger
6
What’s Done So Far Setup development and minimal testing environment for MASS C++ Written first version of MASS C++ Development Guide ◦Found in kowalsky/MASS_CPP/MASS_Cpp_Developer_Guide.pdf Fixed AgentID Critical Section Bug Started on Exchange All neighbors changes, expect to be done by next Monday.
7
Remaining Work Finish reflecting commits Add any new requested changes to the issue tracker Update MASS C++ User Documentation Aiming to be done by February 20 th
8
Risks Slow start to my project means less time spent on development ◦Offsetting this by focusing on the three major features instead of going solely in chronological order for the commits
