GLEAMviz Simulator Client v7
Setting up the GLEAMviz Simulator v7 Client
The GLEAMviz Simulator is a desktop application, meaning that in order to use it you will need to install the application on your computer. The software is available for Windows, Mac and Linux.
To install the client, download the application installer for your operating system:
Windows: GLEAMviz-7.2-windows-installer.exe
Mac OSX: GLEAMviz-7.2-osx-installer.app.zip
Linux 64 bit: GLEAMviz-7.2-linux-x64-installer.run
then run the installer and the GLEAMviz Simulator will be ready to use in a while. (Linux users might have to set the executable permission on the installer file and/or run it from the terminal, depending on the OS distribution configuration).
Please note that according to your security settings you might need to explicitly allow the execution of the installer.
Manual
You can download the application manual at the following link:
To learn more on how to get started you can watch a ten minute tutorial showing how to set up your first simulation and get a first introduction on the things you can do with GLEAMviz. The tutorial illustrates the basic operations needed to create a compartmental model, define the initial conditions of the simulation, manage the simulation files and visualize the results. Operations concerned with the export of data and setup configurations are also briefly covered. Please note that this tutorial uses an old version of the software, with a different user interface.
