SimDesign
Structure for Organizing Monte Carlo Simulation Designs
Provides tools to safely and efficiently organize and execute Monte Carlo simulation experiments in R. The package controls the structure and back-end of Monte Carlo simulation experiments by utilizing a generate-analyse-summarise workflow. The workflow safeguards against common simulation coding issues, such as automatically re-simulating non-convergent results, prevents inadvertently overwriting simulation files, catches error and warning messages during execution, implicitly supports parallel processing with high-quality random number generation, and provides tools for managing high-performance computing (HPC) array jobs submitted to schedulers such as SLURM. For a pedagogical introduction to the package see Sigal and Chalmers (2016) doi:10.1080/10691898.2016.1246953. For a more in-depth overview of the package and its design philosophy see Chalmers and Adkins (2020) doi:10.20982/tqmp.16.4.p248.
