PhysioDesigner 1.1 released
PhysioDesigner is an open platform that supports multilevel modeling of physiological systems in the field of integrated life sciences and systems biology, including physiology and neuroscience. Users can combine and build mathematical models of biological and physiological functions on PhysioDesigner. Users can also integrate morphometric data on a model, which is used, for example, to define a domain in which partial differential equations are solved.
The models developed by PhysioDesigner are stored in PHML (Physiological Hierarchy Markup Language) format, which is an XML-based specification, to describe a wide variety of models of biological and physiological functions with a hierarchical structure. PHML fully inherits the specifications from insilicoML (ISML). PhysioDesigner can act as an editor and browser of the models written in PHML and ISML. It is also possible to import models written in CellML format and export models to CellML (some model expressions in PHML cannot be exported to CellML).
Another distinguishing feature of PhysioDesigner is that it provides a user function
to create SBML-PHML hybrid models, which is a novel way to create multilevel physiological systems. In
addition, morphological data can be integrated into the model.
Simulation of the models
created by PhysioDesigner can be performed by the Flint simulator,
which is developed concurrently with PhysioDesigner. Simulations also can be run in other ways.
PhysioDesigner can export C++ and JAVA source codes including numerical integration solvers. Thus, users
can easily perform simulations by compiling them. Finite element simulation for partial differential
equations can be done by exporting a model in FreeFem++ format and running the script on
FreeFem++.
PhysioDesigner is a successor to insilico IDE
(ISIDE), which was developed over the period from 2007 to 2011. Subsequently, all functions implemented
on ISIDE were reimplemented on PhysioDesigner, and new functions were added. Details of the development
history are here

PySB
PySB is a framework for building mathematical models of biochemical systems as Python programs. PySB
abstracts the complex process of creating equations describing interactions among multiple proteins or other
biomolecules into a simple and intuitive domain specific programming language (see example below), which is
internally translated into BioNetGen or Kappa rules and from there into systems of equations. PySB makes it
straightforward to divide models into modules and to call libraries of reusable elements (macros) that
encode standard biochemical actions. These features promote model transparency, reuse and accuracy. PySB
also interoperates with standard scientific Python libraries such as NumPy, SciPy and SymPy enabling model
simulation and analysis.
