A kinetics model is a specification of reactions between
hypothesized molecular participants. These models that
represent biological, chemical, gene, etc, reactions and
their products allow us to observe and study how, for
example, cells behave and react.
We introduce a graphical user interface
(GUI) to KINSOLVER's engine called GKIN. GKIN
allows one to design the circuit of a kinetics model,
modify, manipulate, maintain, generate input files to
KINSOLVER, generate graphical reports using Gnuplot,
and also list the set of the differential equations, all of
these from the same Java application/applet. To our
knowledge, there is no such comprehensive interface in
any of the software packages that exist for simulation of
biochemical reaction networks.
