National Biomedical Computation Resource (NBCR): Developing End-to-End Cyberinfrastructure for Multiscale Modeling in Biomedical Research

Begun in 1994, the mission of the National Biomedical Computation Resource (NBCR) is to conduct, catalyze and enable multiscale biomedical research by harnessing advanced computation and data cyberinfrastructure through multidiscipline and multi-institutional integrative research and development activities. Here we report the more recent research and technology advances in building cyberinfrast...

Computer Modeling and Simulation

Abstract. Modelling and Simulation is a discipline for developing a level of understanding of the interaction of the parts of a system, and of the system as a whole. The level of understanding which may be developed via this discipline is seldom achievable via any other discipline. A simulation is the manipulation of a model in such a way that it operates on time or space to compress it, thus e...

System Modeling by Computer using Biomedical Texts

In the present paper we describe a new Artificial Intelligence method of system modeling that utilises causal knowledge extracted from different texts. The equations describing the system model are solved with a Prolog program which receives data such as values for its parameters from the text analysis subsystem. The knowledge extraction from the texts is based on the use of our knowledge repre...

Modeling and Simulation of Biomedical Systems

Computer Simulation at Wheal

Mathematical modelling methods were used at Wheal Jane. to investigate the sensitivity of the Stokes hydrosizer to changes in the operating variables, with the view to improving the process efficiency. The major conclusion was that the hydrosizer was overloaded. The results indicated that throughput and spigot densities were the most sensitive variables. The model predictions demonstrated that ...
