Understanding how climate dictates the timing and potential of mosquito-borne viral transmission is essential for preparedness of public health systems and design of control strategies. We developed the Mosquito-borne Viral Suitability Estimator (MVSE) software package for the R programming environment. The package estimates a suitability index based on a climate-driven mathematical expression for the basic reproductive number (R0). By accounting for local climatic variables, as well as viral, vector and human priors, suitability can be estimated for specific regions, hosts, vectors and viral species. ...

...Assemblages are simulated by specifying the: 1) number of species, 2) total abundance of individuals, 3) abundance distribution, 4) spatial configuration, 5) species detection probabilities, 6) survey design, and 7) number of grid cells to survey (out of a square grid comprised of 10,000 cells). SimAssem also processes existing encounter data and formats existing and simulated encounter data for other programs. SimAssem, along with the open source code, will hopefully give researchers and managers a tool for assessing the development of new estimators and evaluating potential decisions in a simulated environment. ...

...Combined with the Seq-sim tool you can generate pooled or bar-coded next generation sequencing biased outcomes. This tool were used to solve reappearing question in a experimental design (e. g. of how many plants or sequencing depth is advisable in a back crossed or out crossed scenario )

Open Metaheuristic (oMetah) is a library aimed at the conception and the rigourous testing of metaheuristics (i.e. genetic algorithms, simulated annealing, ...). The code design is separated in components : algorithms, problems and a test report generator
