RESULTS: A Network epidemiological model representing the spread of a directly transmitted disease through a bus-transportation network connecting mid-size cities in Brazil. In this paper, we present a simulation software, Epigrass, aimed to help designing and simulating network-epidemic models with any kind of node behavior. In this paper, we present a simulation software, Epigrass, aimed to help designing and simulating network-epidemic models with any kind of node behavior. The Epigrass system is driven by a graphical user interface(GUI), which handles several input files required for model definition and manages the simulation and output generation (figure 2). To run a network epidemic model in Epigrass, the user is required to provide three separate text files (Optionally, also a shapefile with the map layer): ./cache/cord-048461-397hp1yt.txt ./txt/cord-048461-397hp1yt.txt
