-====== About ====== 
- 
-===== Ecolego ===== 
- 
-Ecolego is a powerful and flexible software tool for creating dynamic models and performing deterministic or probabilistic simulations. Ecolego can be used for conducting risk assessments of complex dynamic systems evolving over time with any number of species. Ecolego has specialised databases and other add-ons designed for the field of radiological risk assessment. 
- 
-The graphical user interface helps the user to define and manage building blocks, parameters, species and simulation settings. Ecolego also helps to create reports, to plot simulation results, to perform probabilistic simulations and sensitivity analysis. 
- 
-==== Features ==== 
- 
-  * Easy management of blocks, parameters, materials and other settings. 
-  * Hierarchical containers facilitates construction and documentation of large and complex models. 
-  * Projects are easily managed using the project browser, which displays a hierarchical view of blocks, parameters, contaminants and other objects. Multiple projects can be open simultaneously 
-  * Copy-paste of parameters, containers, blocks and materials within and between projects. 
-  * Tool tips present information about selected objects, such as equations, units, “used by” or “uses” relationships. 
-  * Hyperlinks allow the user to jump to different parts of the model. 
-  * Creation of models using interaction matrices 
-  * Sub-system modules can be created to create re-usable components 
-  * Unit checking 
-  * Documentation of models using images, hyperlinks, categories, units and comments 
-  * Parameters and blocks can be created on-the-fly while equations are written 
-  * Listings of all undefined objects or illegal values 
-  * Generates full reports that can be saved in many different formats including the Adobe PDF format 
-  * Automatic handling of nuclide decay and ingrowth (requires [[#Radionuclide_Toolbox|Radionuclide Toolbox]] 
-  * Possibility to call user-written functions in Java or Matlab during simulation. 
-  * Powerful numerical solvers for complex and dynamic systems. Fixed and variable step size solvers of ordinary differential equations for stiff problems. 
-  * Support for probabilistic simulations using Monte Carlo or Latin Hypercube sampling. 
-  * Advanced editor for probability density functions. 
-  * Parameter sensitivity analysis. Pearson, Spearman, EASI correlation coefficients and regression coefficients. Several other methods available with the [[#Sensitivity_Analysis_Toolbox|Sensitivity Analysis Toolbox (EIKOS)]] 
-  * Many different types of result charts and tables are available for simulation outputs. 
-  * Subversion support for modelling collaboration and version handling 
-  * Radionuclide database. [[#Radionuclide_Toolbox|Radionuclide Toolbox]] 
-  * External parameter database connection for sharing and management of quality assured project parameters. [[#Parameter_Database_Toolbox|Parameter Database Toolbox]] 
-  * Sub-system module library 
-  * Export and import of parameter values and results to/from Microsoft Excel. 
- 
-===== Ecolego Player ===== 
- 
-Ecolego Player is a free software for making assessments using models created with Ecolego. This way you can distribute your Ecolego models to customers and colleagues. 
- 
-Ecolego Player features the same functionality as Ecolego, with the exception that the model structure can not be changed. 
- 
-  * Select species and other indices 
-  * Review model structure and equations 
-  * Assign parameter values and probability density functions 
-  * Assign time dependent inputs 
-  * Select simulation outputs 
-  * Specify simulation settings 
-  * Run best estimate or Monte Carlo simulations 
-  * Create charts and tables from simulation output 
-  * Generate report 
- 
- 
-===== Parameter Database Toolbox ===== 
- 
-|{{:ParameterDatabaseToolbox.png|Parameter Database Toolbox Screenshot}}| 
- 
-The [[Parameter_database_toolbox|parameter database toolbox]] provides an interface to the [[Parameter_Database|parameter database]]. 
- 
-  * [[Parameter|Parameter]] values, probability density functions and statistics 
-  * [[Lookup_table|Lookup table]] values and settings 
-  * Export data from your Ecolego project to the database 
-  * Update [[Parameter|parameters]] and [[Lookup_table|lookup tables]]. 
-  * List of parameter names available while writing equations 
-  * Import parameters on-the-fly while writing equations 
-  * Update individual parameters or lookup tables with data from the database. 
- 
-===== Radionuclide Toolbox ===== 
- 
-|{{:RadionuclideToolbox.png|Radionuclide Toolbox Screenshot}}| 
- 
-The radionuclide toolbox features a database containing all nuclide isotopes and their decay constants and decay energies. It also contains the parent-daughter relationships between a radionuclide and its decay products. 
- 
-When the radionuclide toolbox is used together with the [[#ODE_toolbox|ODE toolbox]], Ecolego will automatically calculate ingrowth and decay for each state in the model. 
- 
-  * Import individual radionuclides or decay chains of radionuclides 
-  * Browse radionuclide energies and decay chains 
-  * Automatically handle ingrowth and radionuclide decay for state variables 
- 
-===== Parameter Database ===== 
- 
-|{{:ParameterDatabase.png|Parameter Database Screenshot}}| 
- 
-The parameter database is a free product which can be set up to centralize and quality assure parameter data. Storing parameters in the parameter database assures that data is traceable and transparent. 
- 
-==== Features ==== 
- 
-  * Stores values, time series, statistics and probability density functions. 
-  * Attach comments, references or documents to any value. 
-  * Tag parameter instances 
-  * Role based user permissions make sure that users only access what they are allowed to. 
-  * Import/export to Microsoft Excel. 
-  * Built-in usability status ladder for quality assurance 
- 
-===== Requirements ===== 
- 
-Ecolego and its sub-products are platform independent and run on 32/64 bit Win2000/XP/Vista/7, MacOSX, Linux and Unix. 
- 
-===== Sponsors ===== 
- 
-Ecolego has been sponsored by SSM, Sweden [[http://www.ssm.se|www.ssm.se]] and NRPA, Norway [[http://www.nrpa.no|www.nrpa.no]]. 
- 
-Eikos has been sponsored by Posiva OY [[|https:www.posiva.fi/]] and NRPA [[https://www.nrpa.no|www.nrpa.no]].
