The Agents Input File includes information on the localisation, concentration and diffusion coefficient of the agents in the system. The Reactions Input File includes the reaction, reaction type and reaction kinetic data. The FaST then generates ABM files compatible with FLAME and FLAME GPU, as well as an ODE model. FLAME and FLAME GPU then convert these into ABM executable models using the appropriate compilation tools. Furthermore, the user can also modify the core ABM code and add new functions, but still easily parallelise their bespoke ABM simulation code using FLAME or FLAME GPU.
