A new graphical modeling plugin based on Forrester diagrams for the RECORD platform

RECORD is a modeling and simulation platform with VLE as the main software that combines different forms of equations to represent agrosystem functioning. Although RECORD has a graphic user interface based on box-and-arrow diagrams to develop models, members of modeling communities who prefer Forrester diagrams may become disoriented when using RECORD. To help them, we developed a plugin that displays models as Forrester diagrams and translates them into DEVS formalism.
