Spatial modeling in cell biology at multiple levels
2010
Proceedings of the 2010 Winter Simulation Conference
With the supported level of abstraction, each of those offers a different perception of the spatial phenomena under study. ...
These modeling languages allow an explicit description of spatial phenomena, and facilitate analysis of the temporal spatial dynamics of cells by a clear separation between model, semantics, and simulator ...
CONCLUSION The insight that space plays a crucial role in understanding the dynamics of cell biological systems has fostered the development of diverse modeling approaches during the last years. ...
