Modelling and simulation play an increasing role in Systems Science; including Systems Biology, Synthetic Biology, and Metabolic Engineering. However, there are 4 major hurdles for many experimental biologists:
- Most modelling and simulation tools require the user to be experienced in the mathematical underpinnings, which is in the domain of mathematicians.
- The implementation of the model requires knowledge of specific modelling language, which is in the domain of computer scientists.
- Most tools are specific in the modelling language use, which limits inter-operability and cross-utilization of analytical tools. For example, a metabolic model written in MATLAB cannot be used by most tools in systems biology, which tends to use SBML (Systems Biology Markup Language).
- It is generally difficult and tedious to merge various small models into an aggregate for further use.
AdvanceSyn Toolkit is a suite of open-sourced tools for model development and model analysis; with an emphasis on systems biology, synthetic biology, and metabolic engineering. There are 3 objectives of AdvanceSyn Toolkit:
- It aims to flatten the learning curve in model development for experimental biologists by reducing the amount of mathematics to its minimum.
- It aims to be a model converter between different modelling languages, and enables merger of small models into larger models.
- It aims to be a platform in which other modelling and simulation tools can be linked and aggregated for inter-operability and workflow development.
