This work aims to demonstrate how the requirement of modeling complex systems as the biological ones and the advances in MultiAgent Systems are combined to give a simple, scalable, robust and reliable simulation system. The mobility feature of the BESA agent framework and an interaction biological model are the basis for the construction of a molecular simulation application. The main bioinformatics application's requirements, such as the big number of interacting entities, the high calculations volume, its parallel and distributed processing nature and the need of solution's scalability, are outstanding. A good biological and agent design complemented with the locality model and the profit of agent's mobility makes this kind of applications feasible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
