SteadyCom
Update on Jul 26, 2017
SteadyCom is now integrated into the COnstraint-Based Reconstruction and Analysis (COBRA) Toolbox which supports a wide range of solvers. Please see https://opencobra.github.io/cobratoolbox The code here supports only the IBM ILOG Cplex solver.
Computing the maximum growth rate of a microbial community at community steady-state.

Main functions:
createCommModel: create a community model from individual models
SteadyComCplex: given a community model constructed by createCommModel, find the maximum community growth rate by the SteadyCom procedure
SteadyComFVACplex: perform FVA under the SteadyCom framework
SteadyComPOACplex: perform pairwise FVA under the SteadyCom framework
