Virtual Laboratory Environment 1.3

See AUTHORS and COPYRIGHT for the list of contributors.

VLE is an operational framework for multi-modeling, simulation and
analysis of complex dynamical systems. It addresses the reliability
issue by using recent developments in the theory of modeling and
simulation proposed by B. Zeigler with the Discrete Event System
Specification formalism (DEVS).

Requirements

For the VFL API:

• glibmm (≥ 2.22)
• libxml2 (≥ 2.8)
• libarchive (≥ 2.0)
• boost (≥ 1.41)
• cmake (≥ 2.8.0)
• make (≥ 1.8)
• c++ compiler (gcc ≥ 4.4, clang ≥ 3.1, intel icc (≥ 11.0)

For the MPI command line:

• Any MPI 2 library as OpenMpi, mpich

For the GUI:

• gtkmm (≥ 3.0.0)
• gtksourceview (≥ 2.0.0)

Getting the code

The source tree is currently hosted on Github and Sourceforge. To view
the repository online: https://github.com/vle-forge/vle The URL to
clone it:

git clone git://github.com/vle-forge/vle.git 

Once you have met requirements, compiling and installing is simple:
