The CellML Metadata Framework 2.0 is a modular framework that describes how semantic annotations should be made about mathematical models encoded in the CellML (www.cellml.org) format, and their elements. In addition to the Core specification, there are several satellite specifications, each designed to cater for model annotation in a different context. Basic Model Information, Citation, Licens...

The need for tools to aid the description and sharing of biological models was highlighted at the launch of the International Union of Physiological Sciences Physiome Project in 1997. This has resulted in the release, in 2001, of the CellML specifications (http://www.cellml.org/specifications/). CELLULAR OPEN RESOURCE (COR) was among the early adopters of this standard, eventually forming the f...

An important aspect of multi-scale modelling is the ability to represent mathematical models in forms that can be exchanged between modellers and tools. While the development of languages like CellML and SBML have provided standardised declarative exchange formats for mathematical models, independent of the algorithm to be applied to the model, to date these standards have not provided a clear ...

Advances in biotechnology and experimental techniques have lead to the elucidation of vast amounts of biological data. Mathematical models provide a method of analysing this data; however, there are two issues that need to be addressed: (1) the need for standards for defining cell models so they can, for example, be exchanged across the World Wide Web, and also read into simulation software in ...

OpenCMISS is an open-source modeling environment aimed, in particular, at the solution of bioengineering problems. OpenCMISS consists of two main parts: a computational library (OpenCMISS-Iron) and a field manipulation and visualization library (OpenCMISS-Zinc). OpenCMISS is designed for the solution of coupled multi-scale, multi-physics problems in a general-purpose parallel environment. CellM...

Computational biologists have been developing standards and formats for nearly two decades, with the aim of easing the description and exchange of experimental data, mathematical models, simulation experiments, etc. One of those efforts is CellML (cellml.org), an XML-based markup language for the encoding of mathematical models. Early CellML-based environments include COR and OpenCell. However,...

The mechanistic model of neurovascular coupling was developed and studied by Sten et al. (2020). This describes predicts the arteriolar dilation data mice under various stimulations while anaesthetised awake. We reconstructed in CellML, using a modular approach for each neuronal pathway, successfully reproduced original experiments (see figures this article (2020)). With success result reproduc...
