We have developed a computer software, SmartCell to provide an idea of the evolution of a network in one cell. Based on sotchastic algorithm, SmartCell need multiple runs to have mean results. To help the user, SmartCell is distributed with a graphic user interface, that allow the creation of model with a user friendly interface, and also the analyze and traitment of results after the runs.

Developments.

Currently we are implementing the following:

• Optimisation of SmartCell in term of speed and memory need
• Improvement of the link with databases and integration of Taverna in SmartCell
• Test of the beta version to be able to release the final version

SmartCell team

SmartCell was developped by the SmartCell team in the laboratory of Luis Serrano at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory in Heidelberg, now at the Centre de Regulació Genòmica in Barcelona. The Following people have contributed to the development:

• Maria Ander
• Anders Kaplan
• Yann Dublanche
