title = "Mirage: A framework for data-driven collaborative high-resolution simulation",
abstract = "Information about how human populations shift in response to various stimuli is limited because no single model is capable of addressing these stimuli simultaneously, and integration of the best existing models has been challenging because of the vast disparity among constituent model purposes, architectures, scales, and execution environments. To demonstrate a potential model coupling for approaching this problem, three major model components are integrated into a fully coupled system that executes a worldwide infection-infected routine where a human population requires a food source for sustenance and an infected population can spread an infection when it is in contact with the remaining healthy population. To enable high-resolution data-driven model federation and an ability to capture dynamics and behaviors of billions of humans, a high-performance computing agent-based framework has been created and is demonstrated in this chapter.",
