Novelties since Review Meeting Tackling real life scenarios
Environments from images
Load images as Alchemist environments (Ing. Michele Pratiffi)
Detail
Black areas will be interpreted as walls
Ideal solution for the simulation of closed environments
Ready for being used, although still in beta version

Novelties since Review Meeting Tackling real life scenarios
Maps from the Web
Run simulations on real world maps (Ing. Luca Ricci)
Detail
About 70% complete — to be released in March
OpenStreetMap backend, Google Maps backend will come
Routing of agents through navigation web services
Support for pedestrians, cars, bicycles and public transport

Novelties since Review Meeting Tackling real life scenarios
Realistic pedestrians
Realistic individual and group dynamics(Ing. Michele Bombardi, Ing. Chiara Casalboni)
Detail
About 90% complete, expected in March
Realistic interaction among people
Realistic hurdle avoidance
Different cultural models (from literature)
Group dynamics

Novelties since Review Meeting Advanced analysis
Sacrifices reproducibility for greater performance on multicore CPUs
Detail
Completed and usable, although still in beta version
Can be enabled from the GUI
Improvements from 10% to 400%, depending on the scenario and thenumber of CPUs
No reproducibility guaranteed when using parallel mode

Novelties since Review Meeting Advanced analysis
PVeStA 4 Alchemist
Parallel Statistical Model Checking and Quantitative Analysis Tool
Detail
Work in progress
Integration module completed and ready for producing the first results
Efficient approximate model checking
Collaboration with A. Vandin and A. L. Lafuente (IMT Lucca)
Verification of properties expressed in:
Probabilistic Computational Tree Logic (PCTL)Continuous Stochastic Logic (CSL)Quantitative Temporal Expressions language (QuaTEx)

Novelties since Review Meeting Advanced analysis
Complex networks
Support for multiple network topologies (Ing. Luca Mella)
Detail
Good shape, expected in few weeks
Support for different network types (complex networks, randomnetworks, backbones, etc.)
Studies on information (and malware) diffusion
Studies on social network and opportunistic networks
Results from SOCIALNETS (Social networking for pervasiveadaption) EU Projects will be used (hopefully extended)

3D rendering through Blender
Pleasant rendering of the simulation in 3D (Ing. Luca Nenni)
Detail
Embryonic stage
Export of the simulation data in a BPython/Blender friendly format
Visualisation of computational gradients
Visualisation of obstacles and nodes
Very useful when designing spatial patterns
