Analytics and visualization of spatial models as a service

The Cell-DEVS WebViewer is a lightweight, web-based software that allows users to visualize, interact with and analyze results of cellular automata based simulators such as CD++. A first version of this platform was presented at SpringSim 2018, since then, many improvements have been added. Notably, it has been refactored to follow a more object-oriented architecture which is presented in detail in this paper. Other improvements include additional analytical features as well as an integration with RISE, a server-side distributed simulator that allows users to remotely manage the complete lifecycle of a simulation. The aim of this platform is to support stakeholders and decision makers by providing them with a simple, user-friendly graphic user interface that offers a deeper insight into the system under study.
