Our current pipeline of modules for modelling people is principally focused on developing tools for:

creating synthetic household datasets from multiple longitudinal datasets of varying structure, including modules specifically designed to streamline wrangling data from the HILDA and LSAC datasets (both from Australia); and
implementing agent based model simulations.

A significant amount of work has already been completed on both projects and initial development releases of each, along with one scientific manuscript, are anticipated in late 2023 / early 2024.

Docs: Pipeline of places modules

Thu, 05 Jan 2017 00:00:00 +0000

Our current pipeline of modules for modelling places extends the vicinity and aus libraries to:

predict prevalence and incidence by area; and
provide a user-interface (i.e. software to implement an updated version of the currently deprecated Springtides app).

Although unreleased, the source code for the above projects has been used to generate analysis during the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. Initial development releases of places module libraries, along with an updated app, are anticipated in the second half of 2023.

Docs: Pipeline of platforms modules

Thu, 05 Jan 2017 00:00:00 +0000

Our current pipeline of modules for modelling platforms includes code for implementing:

a discrete event simulation of primary mental health services for young people;
a simple cohort model of early psychosis services; and
a blended (systems dynamics / discrete event simulation) model for optimising eligibility and referral policies across multiple services.

The first two of the above models are currently implemented in R and are sufficiently advanced to produce exploratory analysis. However, neither are adequately documented or tested and need to be redeveloped as ready4 model modules and re-validated prior to development releases. The optimisation model was implemented in Java and was populated with toy data - this will require more substantial development prior to public release.

Docs: Unreleased code

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Currently, a new ready4 software project initiated by the ready4 core team will by default be made public as a pre-release version in the ready4 GitHub organisation. However, there are some important exceptions. Principally, these exceptions relate to code that we authored in the initial phase of ready4’s development to which some or all of the following apply:

the code is highly unstable because it has not been (fully) updated to account to major changes implemented in core dependencies;
the code uses outdated naming conventions and is potentially confusing when used in conjunction with other elements of the ready4 suite; and/or
the code repository has yet to be cleansed of artefacts that are not yet appropriate for public dissemination (e.g. renders of draft scientific manuscripts).

Depending on which of the above issues apply to a code repository, that repository will either be:

a private repository (not accessible to anyone outside the core development team); or
a public repository stored in a location other than the ready4 GitHub organisation.
