This is a Julia package for creating Systems Models.
It requires Julia 1.5+.
Clone this repository to your system and 'develop' it from the julia shell. (Press ']' to enter the Pkg prompt)
(@v1.5) pkg> develop /path/to/SysModelsThere are some small examples in the test/ directory, and some larger ones, based on the code used in some of the papers below, in the examples/ folder.
Better documentation will be coming soon.
The code was written for modelling aspects of organizational security, and the package currently reflects this. Eventually, the goal is to move the security-specific code into its own SecModels package, leaving the generic systems modelling code here.
The code was written as part of the Productive Security project, and was used in several publications:
