Minsky brings system dynamics and monetary modelling to economics. Models are defined using flowcharts on a drawing canvas (as are Matlab's Simulink, Vensim, Stella, etc). Minsky's unique feature is the "Godley Table", which uses double entry bookkeeping to generate stock-flow consistent models of financial flows.

Minsky is good for demonstrating mathematics too, with the most "math-like" interface in system dynamics.

Features

  • Graphical modelling environment similar to Vensim and Simulink
  • Unique feature of Godley table for modelling financial flows
  • Dynamic graphs embedded in canvas
  • Change simulation parameters on the fly to explore effects of economic policy, etc.
  • System ODE solver
  • Export of system as XML, LaTeX, SVG
  • Manual at http://www.profstevekeen.com/minsky/
