A GeMA simulation file is composed of a set of declarations that together provide information about all the objects that form a GeMA simulation. These include model data objects, describing what will be simulated, and solution method objects, describing how the problem should be solved.

These declarations can reside in a single text file with a rather plain syntax, but more often than not, the full set of declarations will be split into several text files, each one corresponding to one of the main components of the simulation, plus a master file to group the others. When loading a model or a simulation file from the master file, path macros can be used to help locating the files.

The following pages present a reference manual with the syntax and the options available for each one of this objects. These pages are a complement to the information presented on the tutorial on how to build a GeMA simulation model. For those new to GeMA, reading the tutorial before the reference manual is advised.

Objects marked as "plugin based" are objects that are created by plugins. For this objects, the description given on the following pages gives only the set of common options parsed by the GeMA framework. The complete syntax and options for each of this objects is given by the Plugin Reference documentation.
