There is a global set of parameters that are handled largely in the file 
source/simulator/parameters.cc. But then most plugins also define their 
own parameters, and they declare and read them individually -- take any 
plugin you like (or that's close to what you want to emulate) and look 
for the declare_parameters() and parse_parameters() functions in the 
file that implements the plugin.

Let us know if you have concrete questions about what a particular piece 
of code there does!

Best
  W.
