About the CoMSES Model Library more info
Our mission is to help computational modelers at all levels engage in the establishment and adoption of community standards and good practices for developing and sharing computational models. Model authors can freely publish their model source code in the Computational Model Library alongside narrative documentation, open science metadata, and other emerging open science norms that facilitate software citation, reproducibility, interoperability, and reuse. Model authors can also request peer review of their computational models to receive a DOI.
All users of models published in the library must cite model authors when they use and benefit from their code.
Please check out our model publishing tutorial and contact us if you have any questions or concerns about publishing your model(s) in the Computational Model Library.
We also maintain a curated database of over 7500 publications of agent-based and individual based models with additional detailed metadata on availability of code and bibliometric information on the landscape of ABM/IBM publications that we welcome you to explore.

Urban Sprawl and Income segregation with effect from income level and inequality
Cheng Guo Nina Schwarz Carsten M Buchmann | Published Tuesday, November 01, 2016 | Last modified Friday, May 26, 2017This is a stylized model based on Alonso’s model investigating the relationship between urban sprawl and income segregation.
Agent-based Simulation Models of the College Sorting Process
Sean F Reardon Matt Kasman Daniel Klasik Rachel Baker | Published Friday, May 23, 2014We explore how dynamic processes related to socioeconomic inequality operate to sort students into, and create stratification among, colleges.
An Agent-Based Model of Internet Diffusion Under General and Specific Network Externalities
Filiz Garip | Published Friday, April 27, 2012 | Last modified Saturday, April 27, 2013Using nodes from the 2002 General Social Survey sample, the code establishes a network of ties with a given homophily bias, and simulates Internet adoption rates in that network under three conditions: (i) no network externalities, (ii) general network externalities, where an individual’s reservation price is a function of the overall adoption rate in the network, (iii) specific network externalities, where reservation price is a function of the adoption rate in individual’s personal […]
Parental choices, children's skills, and skill inequality: An agent-based model implemented in Python
Andrés Cardona | Published Thursday, October 30, 2014The model explores the emergence of inequality in cognitive and socio-emotional skills at the societal level within and across generations that results from differences in parental investment behavior during childhood and adolescence.
Setting the Stage for Inequality
Timothy Dennehy | Published Monday, March 11, 2013 | Last modified Saturday, April 27, 2013How can a strictly egalitarian social system give way to a stratified society if all of its members punish each other for any type of selfish behavior? This model examines the role of prestige bias in constant and variable environments on the development of hierarchies of wealth.
Aspiration, Attainment and Success: An agent-based model of distance-based school allocation
James Millington | Published Friday, November 02, 2012 | Last modified Friday, July 03, 2015The purpose of this model is to investigate mechanisms driving the geography of educational inequality and the consequences of these mechanisms for individuals with varying attributes and mobility.
