Model Building and Visualisation
It was clear from the very beginning that it would be very useful to have a software tool that could be used to build a model and also automatically could create a graphical representation of a FRAM model. After several attempts this tool is now available. It is called the FRAM Model Visualiser (FMV).
The FMV allows a user to build and edit a FRAM mode and to visualise it. The FMV is installed and run using Adobe Air, which can be download from the Adobe website http://get.adobe.com/air.
The current version of the FMV (version 0.4.1, updated May 27, 2016) can be found here.
Instructions on how to use the FMV can be found here. The instructions now include a reference to a change log, where suggestions for improvements also can be submitted. A simple handbook for how to use the FMV to build a FRAM model can be found here. (Please note that the examples are taken from health care.)
A definition of the FMV data format can be found here.
Please provide feedback both about the FMV and the instructions. And share interesting examples.
The FMV has been developed and written by Rees Hill (http://www.zerprize.com). The FRAMily gratefully acknowledges this significant contribution.
