SBMLevolver is an open-source software project that aims at evolving dynamic models of biological networks (represented in
SBML). The algorithm is supposed to be used to
fill in
the unknown parts of partially characterised models, as well as to design novel biological computing devices with pre-specified functionality. The software has been developed and implemented at the
Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena, as part of the
ESIGNET project.
The overall goal of the
ESIGNET project is to study the computational properties of cell signalling networks (
CSN) by theoretical analysis and evolutionary computation methods, and to re-apply this understanding in developing new ways to model and predict real
CSNs.
