Oscill8 Documentation: Introduction

Official SourceForge project page

Oscill8 is a tool for analyzing large systems of ODEs, particularly with respect to understanding how the high dimensional parameter space controls the dynamics of the system. It includes:
    • Time course/integration (using CVODE)
    • Multiple time course generation (incrementing parameters, etc)
    • One parameter bifurcation diagrams (batch mode, several parameters)
    • Two parameter bifurcation diagrams (batch mode, several parameters)
    • Bifurcation searches, matching
    • Organization of output, including:
      • notes for each run
      • analysis on subsets of parameters
      • graphical output is stored with model and state

The goal of this tool is to allow a user to concentrate less on the details of bifurcation analysis, and more on the results obtained from that analysis. When dealing with models containing a large number of parameters, you need access to large amounts of graphical data revealing the bifurcation behavior of the model, and you need to be able to get this data rapidly. For most applications, the analysis is routine and shouldn't require user interaction with the software. Of course, any useful bifurcation tool should also expose the lower level, numerical control parameters to the expert user, and this is something that is include as well. There is a "raw" AUTO interface to satisfy the zealot!
