Cain Description

Stochastic Simulations for Chemical Kinetics Cain performs stochastic and deterministic simulations of chemical reactions. It can spawn multiple simulation processes to utilize multi-core computers. Cain stores models, simulation parameters, and simulation results (populations and reaction counts) in an XML format. In addition, SBML models can be imported and exported. You can read the models and simulation parameters from input files or you can edit them from within the program.The GUI (Graphical User Interface) shown below is written in Python and uses the wxPython toolkit. The solvers are implemented as command line executables, written in C++, which are driven by Cain. This makes it easy to launch batch jobs. It also simplifies the process of adding new solvers. Cain offers a variety of solvers:· Gillespie's direct method.· Gillespie's first reaction method.· Gibson and Bruck's next reaction method.· Tau-leaping.· Hybrid direct/tau-leaping.· ODE integration. NOTE: Cain is licensed and distributed under the terms of the BSD License. Requirements: · Python · wxPython · matplotlib What's New in This Release: · Improved the user interface and the help menu. Fixed an error in recording histogram output.
