About:
A user-friendly software tool named DVASim (Dynamic Virtual Analyzer and Simulator) is introduced, which provides a virtual laboratory environment to simulate and analyze the behavior of genetic logic circuit models represented in an SBML (Systems Biology Markup Language). Hence, SBML models developed in other software environments can be analyzed and simulated in D-VASim. D-VASim offers deterministic as well as stochastic simulation; and differs from other software tools by being able to extract and validate the Boolean logic from the SBML model. D-VASim is also capable of analyzing the threshold value and propagation delay of a genetic circuit model.
The tool was further enhanced by a graduate student through a parallel approach to perform threshold value analysis and verification of genetic logic circuits. See details here.
This tool was used in CSE-4099 - Independent Study in which the student performed simulations, completed end-of-chapter exercises, and carried out a small project.
