CompuCell3D - An open source cellular modeling framework

CompuCell3D is an open-source modeling framework
to study cellular behavior. It is primarily intended for
biologists and physicists who can build models using
“generalized cells.” The code is written in C++ and
has both Python and Java wrappers with a graphical
user interface that allows for real time visualizations
(for small to moderately-sized problems); for larger
sized problems, IU’s Big Red supercomputer has
been used to run the simulations. This presentation
provides an overview of CompuCell3D and results
from a 3-D model of tumor growth.
