Software for performing stochastic simulations of chemical kinetics, allowing for the study of complex systems with multiple interacting processes. Useful for understanding reaction rates, pathway analysis, and prediction of system behavior.
Cain is a powerful software tool that performs both stochastic and deterministic simulations of chemical reactions. It has the capability to spawn multiple simulation processes, taking advantage of multi-core computers for optimal performance.
The software stores models, simulation parameters, and simulation results such as populations and reaction counts in a convenient XML format. Moreover, Cain can import and export SBML models. Users have the flexibility to edit models and simulation parameters either from within the program or by reading them from input files.
Cain's user-friendly Graphical User Interface (GUI) is written in Python and utilizes the wxPython toolkit. Its solvers are designed as command line executables using C++, and they are driven by Cain, resulting in streamlined processes for launching batch jobs and adding new solvers.
Cain features a variety of solvers, including Gillespie's direct method, Gillespie's first reaction method, Gibson and Bruck's next reaction method, Tau-leaping, hybrid direct/tau-leaping, and ODE integration.
It is important to note that Cain is licensed and distributed under the terms of the BSD License. Overall, Cain is a comprehensive and flexible software tool suitable for complex chemical reaction simulations.
