Welcome to the GoldSim Player!

GoldSim is a highly graphical, object-oriented computer program for carrying out dynamic, probabilistic simulations. In a sense, GoldSim is like a "visual spreadsheet" allowing you to visually create and manipulate data and equations.

The GoldSim Player is a special version of GoldSim that allows you to "play" or "read" an existing GoldSim model without having to license the GoldSim software. In general, the user interface for the GoldSim Player is identical to that of the full GoldSim version, with menu options and controls for editing the model removed or disabled. You can view and navigate any GoldSim model using the GoldSim Player. This allows a modeler to distribute a model to others without requiring them to license GoldSim.

The topics listed below provide all the information you need to use the GoldSim Player to view and run GoldSim models.

If you are interested in learning more about how GoldSim models work, and/or you want to build your own models in GoldSim, Learning More About GoldSim tells you how you can obtain further information.

Note: In addition to viewing Player files, the GoldSim Player can also be used as a Client A GoldSim executable that acts as a client that shares the computational burden when using the Distributed Processing Module. when using the GoldSim Distributed Processing Module A specialized GoldSim module that allows you to use multiple computers connected over a network to share the computational burden of a Monte Carlo simulation..
