Although discrete Petri nets are quite simplistic models, they are capable of modeling global network properties and simulating their behaviour. Here, we introduce PetriScape, the first Petri net simulator for Cytoscape. Many approaches of varying complexity exist but none of them have been integrated into Cytoscape as app/ plugin yet. However, only few apps/ plugins/tools are available for simulating network dynamics in Cytoscape 3. Cytoscape is the standard bioinformatics tool offering the community an extensible platform for computational analysis of the emerging cellular network together with experimental omics data sets. Systems biology plays a central role for biological network analysis in the post-genomic era. A plugin for discrete Petri net simulations in Cytoscape.Īlmeida, Diogo Azevedo, Vasco Silva, Artur Baumbach, Jan

Install through the Cytoscape plugin manager or visit the web page: CytoscapeRPC for the user tutorial and download. This enables them to access Cytoscape functionality and visualize their data interactively without leaving the programming environment with which they are familiar. CytoscapeRPC: a plugin to create, modify and query Cytoscape networks from scripting languages.ĬytoscapeRPC is a plugin for Cytoscape which allows users to create, query and modify Cytoscape networks from any programming language which supports XML-RPC.
