Description

Currently, the simulator hierarchy reflects it organic/chaotic growth. There are a few things to clean up:

  • Check where the inheretence line could be improved (e.g. StochasticNoiseSimulator)
  • Remove unnecessary members of Simulator (e.g. rootEdge and maybe the dd package (multipe simulators have to create their own packages anyway)

Research direction

Start by mapping the Simulator hierarchy, including StochasticNoiseSimulator, and identify where the inheritance line and shared members are defined. Review the use of rootEdge and the dd package across simulators; done requires an agreed hierarchy and removal of members or packages that are not needed, but the issue names no files or tests.
