@techreport{Sinha2014, author = {Sinha, Aman}, title = {Comparison of stochastic simulation tools}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:co1-opus4-31460}, year = {2014}, abstract = {This report compares some stochastic simulation tools for biochemical reaction networks. The stochastic simulation tools are selected on the basis of some selection criteria. Simulations are performed for the different stochastic simulation tools on different benchmark models. This report gives an overview of how the comparison is carried out for the chosen tools. The tools are compared on a common evaluation protocol. The evaluation protocol comprises a set of benchmark models along with the parameters which are provided as input to the tools. The benchmark models are represented as Petri nets and fed in SBML (System Biology Markup Language) to the different tools. Experiments are performed on each tool and the results are recorded. The tools are finally compared based on the comparison criteria.}, subject = {Benchmarks; Biochemical reaction networks; Evaluation protocol; SBML; Stochastic simulation; Stochastisches Modell; Petri-Netz}, language = {en} }
