1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Distributed agent-based modeling (ABM) on high-performance computing resources provides the promise of capturing unprecedented details of large-scale complex systems. However, the specialized knowledge required for developing such ABMs creates barriers to wider adoption and utilization. Here we present our experiences in developing an initial implementation of Repast4Py, a Python-based distributed ABM toolkit. We build on our experiences in developing ABM toolkits, including Repast for High Performance Computing (Repast HPC), to identify the key elements of a useful distributed ABM toolkit. We leverage the Numba, NumPy, and PyTorch packages and the Python C-API to create a scalable modeling system that can exploit the largest HPC resources and emerging computing architectures.
