Solstice is an economic network simulation framework. The primary outcomes are quantitative analyses of the behavior of economic systems under uncertainty. It can be used both as a production tool in a portfolio / risk management context or as a research tool. The objective is to provide a performant, easily usable, extensible simulation framework to support economic network analysis.
This page is the root of the Solstice User Documentation. Mathematical documentation is provided elsewhere. Code documentation is embedded in the code and is provided within the distribution.
NOTE: Solstice is still in active development. As the functionality of the platform is enhanced, the documentation will be enriched and updated, following also user feedback.

High level overview of the Solstice functionality
Solstice is a Simulation framework. In one sentence, given an initial configuration of some economic network it will simulate future states according to a range of possible scenarios and models and it will output the state of the network at future dates.
