# Loading Chemical Reaction Network Models from Files
# [Loading Chemical Reaction Network Models from Files](@id model_file_import_export)
Catalyst stores chemical reaction network (CRN) models in `ReactionSystem` structures. This tutorial describes how to load such `ReactionSystem`s from, and save them to, files. This can be used to save models between Julia sessions, or transfer them from one session to another. Furthermore, to facilitate the computation modelling of CRNs, several standardised file formats have been created to represent CRN models (e.g. [SBML](https://sbml.org/)). This enables CRN models to be shared between different softwares and programming languages. While Catalyst itself does not have the functionality for loading such files, we will here (briefly) introduce a few packages that can load different file types to Catalyst `ReactionSystem`s.

Julia provides a general and lightweight interface for loading and saving Julia structures to and from files that it can be good to be aware of. It is called [Serialization.jl](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/stdlib/Serialization/) and provides two functions, `serialize` and `deserialize`. The first allows us to write a Julia structure to a file. E.g. if we wish to save a parameter set associated with our model, we can use

## Loading SBML files using SBMLImporter.jl and SBMLToolkit.jl
## [Loading SBML files using SBMLImporter.jl and SBMLToolkit.jl](@id model_file_import_export_sbml)
The Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) is the most widespread format for representing CRN models. Currently, there exist two different Julia packages, [SBMLImporter.jl](https://github.com/sebapersson/SBMLImporter.jl) and [SBMLToolkit.jl](https://github.com/SciML/SBMLToolkit.jl), that are able to load SBML files to Catalyst `ReactionSystem` structures. SBML is able to represent a *very* wide range of model features, with both packages supporting most features. However, there exist SBML files (typically containing obscure model features such as events with time delays) that currently cannot be loaded into Catalyst models.

SBMLImporter's `load_SBML` function can be used to load SBML files. Here, we load a [Brusselator](@ref basic_CRN_library_brusselator) model stored in the "brusselator.xml" file:
```julia
using SBMLImporter
prn, cbs = load_SBML("brusselator.xml", massaction = true)
```
Here, while [ReactionNetworkImporters generates a `ParsedReactionSystem` only](@ref file_loading_rni_net), SBMLImporter generates a `ParsedReactionSystem` (here stored in `prn`) and a [so-called `CallbackSet`](https://docs.sciml.ai/DiffEqDocs/stable/features/callback_functions/#CallbackSet) (here stored in `cbs`). While `prn` can be used to create various problems, when we simulate them, we must also supply `cbs`. E.g. to simulate our brusselator we use:

The `massaction = true` option informs the importer that the target model follows mass-action principles. When given, this enables SBMLImporter to make appropriate modifications to the model (which are important for e.g. jump simulation performance).

### SBMLImporter and SBMLToolkit
### [SBMLImporter and SBMLToolkit](@id model_file_import_export_package_alts)
Above, we described how to use SBMLImporter to import SBML files. Alternatively, SBMLToolkit can be used instead. It has a slightly different syntax, which is described in its [documentation](https://github.com/SciML/SBMLToolkit.jl), and does not support as wide a range of SBML features as SBMLImporter. A short comparison of the two packages can be found [here](https://github.com/sebapersson/SBMLImporter.jl?tab=readme-ov-file#differences-compared-to-sbmltoolkit). Generally, while they both perform well, we note that for *jump simulations* SBMLImporter is preferable (its way for internally representing reaction event enables more performant jump simulations).

# Steady state stability computation
# [Steady state stability computation](@id steady_state_stability)
After system steady states have been found using [HomotopyContinuation.jl](@ref homotopy_continuation), [NonlinearSolve.jl](@ref steady_state_solving), or other means, their stability can be computed using Catalyst's `steady_state_stability` function. Systems with conservation laws will automatically have these removed, permitting stability computation on systems with singular Jacobian.

!!! warn
Catalyst currently computes steady state stabilities using the naive approach of checking whether a system's largest eigenvalue real part is negative. While more advanced stability computation methods exist (and would be a welcome addition to Catalyst), there is no direct plans to implement these. Furthermore, Catalyst uses a tolerance `tol = 10*sqrt(eps())` to determine whether a computed eigenvalue is far away enough from 0 to be reliably used. This threshold can be changed through the `tol` keyword argument.

## Pre-computing the Jacobian to increase performance when computing stability for many steady states
## [Pre-computing the Jacobian to increase performance when computing stability for many steady states](@id steady_state_stability_jacobian)
Catalyst uses the system Jacobian to compute steady state stability, and the Jacobian is computed once for each call to `steady_state_stability`. If you repeatedly compute stability for steady states of the same system, pre-computing the Jacobian and supplying it to the `steady_state_stability` function can improve performance.

In this example we use the self-activation loop from previously, pre-computes its Jacobian, and uses it to multiple `steady_state_stability` calls:
