  <dc:title>R Package for the Smoking History Generator</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package SmokingHistoryGenerator version 7.0.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Efficient R interface to the Cancer Intervention and Surveillance
    Modeling Network (CISNET) Smoking History Generator microsimulation
    engine, which synthesizes individual smoking histories
    (initiation, cessation, intensity) and ages at death from calibrated
    initiation, cessation, cigarettes-per-day, and mortality tables. The
    wrapper exposes fixed-cohort and population data-frame simulation,
    multi-threaded segmentation, reproducible pseudo-random streams
    (L'Ecuyer RngStream MRG32k3a or Matsumoto--Nishimura Mersenne Twister),
    legacy CLI-style configuration files, and portable YAML configuration
    save/load with optional split smoking and mortality parameter bundles.
