The objective of this paper is to make ecological macroeconomic modeling accessible to all by sharing the code, technical appendix and User Manual of Philia 1.0, an ongoing modeling project used in several academic papers. Philia 1.0 is a middle-sized model of 500 equations describing the interaction between an artificial economy and a simplified Earth system. This model yields analytical insight into the impact of a wide array of sustainable transition policies on the macroeconomy, climate, inequalities, and postgrowth welfare indicators. The E-views code modules discussed in this paper are scalable so that researchers can easily introduce new variables, recalibrate the model, change parameter value or include new structural relationships to develop their own policy scenarios.

The Environmental Policy Integrated Climate (EPIC) model is a comprehensive, field-scale agroecosystem model widely used for both diagnostic and prognostic analyses in agriculture. However, its application at regional scales is limited due to its original design to simulate a limited number of fields. Custom Python or R scripts have attempted to scale EPIC, but they are often inefficient, non-standardized, and not publicly available. To address these issues, we developed GeoEPIC, a comprehensive Python package that streamlines spatial EPIC implementation. GeoEPIC automates input generation from spatial datasets, model calibration, simulation execution, and output post-processing. This paper introduces GeoEPIC’s structure and functionality through illustrative examples demonstrating its application for crop yield estimation and simulating water use in irrigated soybean systems in Nebraska.

As seismic hazards pose a significant threat to buildings, it is crucial to implement monitoring and risk assessment throughout the entire earthquake process. Existing structural response monitoring and damage prediction methods have limited accuracy, with most risk assessment systems relying on empirical models. These systems often fail to achieve comprehensive data integration and effective assessment across the entire process. This study proposes the Integrated System for Seismic Response Monitoring and Risk Assessment of Buildings (ISRAB), which effectively integrates real-time sensor data with Improved Deep Embedded Clustering (IDEC) and threshold warnings to predict structural state changes. It uses a random field approach to quantitatively assess building loss, casualties, and repair time, and supports future earthquake risk analysis. ISRAB bridges structural response monitoring, damage warning, consequence assessment, and future earthquake risk evaluation, enabling comprehensive applications throughout the entire process. Using a single-layer 3D-printed rural house as an example, the functionality of ISRAB was demonstrated, showing that it can provide at least 5 s of early warning and achieve a 97 % accuracy rate in structural state identification. The application scenarios of ISRAB include enhancing urban seismic resilience, supporting post-disaster emergency management, facilitating insurance claims, and improving risk assessment processes.

The Downhill Simplex Method (DSM) is a fast-converging derivative-free optimization technique for nonlinear systems. However, the optimization process is often subject to premature convergence due to degenerate simplices or noise-induced spurious minima. This study introduces a software package for the robust Downhill Simplex Method (rDSM), which incorporates two key enhancements. First, simplex degeneracy is detected and corrected by volume maximization under constraints. Second, the real objective value of noisy problems is estimated by reevaluating the long-standing points. Thus, rDSM improves the convergence of DSM, and may increase the applicability of DSM to higher dimensions, even in the presence of noise. The rDSM software package thus provides a robust and efficient solution for both analytical and experimental optimization scenarios. This methodological advancement extends the applicability of simplex-based optimization to complex experimental systems where gradient information remains inaccessible and measurement noise proves non-negligible.

We present apsimNGpy, an open-source Python Application Programming Interface (API) for the Agricultural Production Systems sIMulator (APSIM) Next Generation (NG) process-based agroecosystem model. Specifically, the package provides a comprehensive Python API that extends and augments APSIM NG functionalities by integrating it with Python’s scientific computing libraries to facilitate integration of soil and climate data and support spatially explicit simulations over broad spatial extents. apsimNGpy speeds up computations through multiprocessing and multithreading, and provides a flexible, modular, and object-oriented framework that allows for customization with minimal code configuration. It furthermore provides a comprehensive suite of optimization algorithms for examining trade-offs between agricultural production and environmental outcomes, as well as for calibrating model parameters to enhance predictive performance. By embedding APSIM NG into the Python environment, apsimNGpy facilitates reproducible, scalable, and automatable research workflows for assessing agricultural best management practices and yield forecasting. In doing so, apsimNGpy expands the potential user base and application of the APSIM agroecosystem model, empowering users to test and extend the model to a wider range of research and application contexts.

This article presents version 2.0 of the DetPy (Differential Evolution Tools) library, a Python toolbox for solving advanced optimization problems using differential evolution and its variants. The updated version introduces 15 additional algorithms, increasing the total number of available methods to 30 and enabling extensive experimental studies in differential evolution. Version 2.0 implements a flexible stopping mechanism, where the number of objective function evaluations (NFE) serves as the default termination criterion, while users may define custom stopping conditions. The update also includes minor bug fixes, code refactoring, and improvements that enhance software robustness and maintainability.

This paper presents a user-space C implementation of Simplemux, an experimental network protocol designed to improve efficiency and reliability in packet-switched networks. It provides two main functionalities: (i) traffic saving, by aggregating small packets into larger ones to reduce bandwidth consumption and packets per second; and (ii) fast delivery grant, by redundantly sending critical packets to minimize latency over unreliable links. The implementation includes three flavors (compressed, fast, blast), multiple transport modes, Robust Header Compression, and configurable multiplexing policies. Simplemux has been applied in research on online gaming, VoIP optimization, and smart grid communications.
