About CBMPy

CBMPy (http://cbmpy.sourceforge.net) is a new platform for constraint based modelling and analysis. It has been designed using principles developed in the PySCeS simulation software project: usability, flexibility and accessibility. Its architecture is both extensible and flexible using data structures that are intuitive to the biologist (metabolites, reactions, compartments) while transparently translating these into the underlying mathematical structures used in advanced analysis (LP's, MILP's).

CBMPy implements popular analyses such as FBA, FVA, element/charge balancing, network analysis and model editing as well as advanced methods developed specifically for the ecosystem modelling: minimal distance methods, flux minimization and input selection. To cater for a diverse range of modelling needs CBMPy supports user interaction via:

interactive console, scripting for advanced use or as a library for software development
GUI, for quick access to a visual representation of the model, analysis methods and annotation tools
SOAP based web services: using the Mariner framework much high level functionality is exposed for integration into web tools
