Even though creating a simulation is a very complex endeavour, and one that requires a specialized team researching a problem and coming up with a model to be later coded, we will attempt to create a very simple simulation based ion an existing model.
We will access the Forio web site and select the option to Create your Web simulation, then select Broadcast Express. Once there, you will create an account and work on a simulation that follows the Epidemics model.
Your task will be to modify both the model and the interface to adapt the Epidemics simulation to the spreading of a rumor. The goal of the simulation is, given a user-defined probability that a person hearing the rumor will retransmit it, to predict how many people will get to know of the rumor after a certain period of time.
You have to send the URL of the simulation to itgs.sass@gmail.com before the end of the lesson on Friday afternoon.
