This software is a solver for systems of delay differential equations equipped with switches. It uses numerical methods to provide accurate solutions to these systems.
DDESolve is a software solver that utilizes the numerical core of Simon Wood's solv95 program to efficiently solve Delay Differential Equations. The user interface has been completely rebuilt using Cocoa, resulting in a different user experience. This software uses the same 2nd/3rd order adaptive Runge-Kutta solver as solv95, and the model format is almost the same. It can permit the numerical solution of systems of ordinary and delay differential equations, and it can also handle state variable discontinuities (switches).
To use this software, the Apple Developer tools must be installed on the computer. Once installed, it is necessary to edit a template C file to establish the model. Once compiled, the model is linked to the numerical and graphical routines, allowing the software to solve the model accurately and display the results to the user. This application was initially designed to solve population dynamic models, but its capabilities extend beyond that as well.
One of the major advantages of DDESolve is the careful numerical analysis it provides, particularly with respect to solution of delay differential equations, leading to faster performance relative to other software packages that use less efficient adaptive timestepping. Additionally, its graphics utilize only the Cocoa API, meaning that there are no extra toolboxes or add-ins necessary to complete the project. Finally, this software is completely open source, and is free for non-commercial use. As a result, it is a great option for anyone looking for a high-performance differential equation solver.
