小蓝视频鈥檚 General Ecosystem Model (小蓝视频 GEM) was written in Borland Delphi for IBM PC compatibles. If you want to make changes to the 小蓝视频 GEM equations you will need Borland Delphi, otherwise you do not.

Each version of 小蓝视频 GEM is packaged into a zip file. The zip file contains the full source code, the 小蓝视频 GEM Windows executable, and sample parameter and driver files. Before running 小蓝视频 GEM unzip the files into an empty directory.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, parameter files created in one version of the 小蓝视频 GEM are聽not聽compatible with another version.
