The document describes the Cassandra platform, which is currently in alpha version. The platform allows users to create library-based scenarios using pre-existing components, run simulations, and train models using measurement data. It also has modules for estimating consumer response to incentives and identifying consumer social networks. The platform is open source and its development is ongoing. The next steps include a beta release in October 2013 and integrating additional modules while evaluating the platform in pilot cases.
