Stochastic reaction-diffusion simulation with MesoRD
UNLABELLED MesoRD is a tool for stochastic simulation of chemical reactions and diffusion. In particular, it is an implementation of the next subvolume method, which is an exact method to simulate the Markov process corresponding to the reaction-diffusion master equation. AVAILABILITY MesoRD is free software, written in C++ and licensed under the GNU general public license (GPL). MesoRD runs ...
متن کاملSTEPS: Modeling and Simulating Complex Reaction-Diffusion Systems with Python
We describe how the use of the Python language improved the user interface of the program STEPS. STEPS is a simulation platform for modeling and stochastic simulation of coupled reaction-diffusion systems with complex 3-dimensional boundary conditions. Setting up such models is a complicated process that consists of many phases. Initial versions of STEPS relied on a static input format that did...
متن کاملParallel STEPS: Large Scale Stochastic Spatial Reaction-Diffusion Simulation with High Performance Computers
Stochastic, spatial reaction-diffusion simulations have been widely used in systems biology and computational neuroscience. However, the increasing scale and complexity of models and morphologies have exceeded the capacity of any serial implementation. This led to the development of parallel solutions that benefit from the boost in performance of modern supercomputers. In this paper, we describ...
متن کاملParallel stochastic reaction-diffusion simulation using Gillespie stochastic simulation algorithm
Spatial stochastic simulation is a valuable method for studying processes of reaction and diffusion in biological systems. This technique requires significant computational efforts, but the availability of high-performance computing made it possible to develop coherent computational models of cells [1]. Several approaches were introduced in order to utilize parallel execution to speed up simula...
متن کاملIncorporating Diffusion in Complex Geometries into Stochastic Chemical Kinetics Simulations
A method is developed for incorporating diffusion of chemicals in complex geometries into stochastic chemical kinetics simulations. Systems are modeled using the reaction-diffusion master equation, with jump rates for diffusive motion between mesh cells calculated from the discretization weights of an embedded boundary method. Since diffusive jumps between cells are treated as first order react...
