Welcome

You can get the source code here for the X-Windows Stochastic Spatial Simulator, s3, maintained by Ted Cox and Rick Durrett. You may want to check out the short README file, or the longer TeX document README.tex (also in postscript README.ps or dvi README.dvi format). Then get the s3 distribution s3.tar.Z or s3.tar.gz, and check out the user contributed models below.
The files s3.tar.Z and s3.tar.gz were updated on 12 Jan 1999.
There is now a new tutorial in HTML format that is included in the distribution.
Click on the image below for a life-size snapshot of s3 simulating the multitype voter (or stepping stone) model.


We would like to keep track of s3 users, so please register when you first download. Later, when you have started (or stopped) using the software, send mail to Ted Cox or Rick Durrett to let us know how it works for you. If you have written some interesting models for s3, and would like to make them available to others, please send them to us. We will add them to the archive of contributed models, s3-contrib.tar.Z or s3-contrib.tar.gz.
