epyc: Computational experiment management in Python

Abstract

epyc is a Python module for designing, executing, storing, and analysing the results of large sets of (possibly long-running) computational experiments, as are often found when writing simulations of complex networks and other domains. It allows the same experimental code to be run on single machines, multicore machines, and computational clusters without modification, and automatically manages the execution of an experiment for different parameter values and for multiple repetitions.
