KiSAO

The Kinetic Simulation Algorithm Ontology (KiSAO) supplies information about existing algorithms available for the simulation of systems biology models, their characterization and interrelationships. KiSAO is part of the BioModels.net project and of the COMBINE initiative.[1]

Structure

KiSAO consists of three main branches:

  • simulation algorithm
  • simulation algorithm characteristic
  • simulation algorithm parameter

The elements of each algorithm branch are linked to characteristic and parameter branches using has characteristic and has parameter relationships accordingly. The algorithm branch itself is hierarchically structured using relationships which denote that the descendant algorithms were derived from, or specify, more general ancestors.

gollark: Well, yes, much of the UK's governance is fairly bees?
gollark: Yes, this is quite uncool.
gollark: What if we make it so that you can appoint lords much more easily, but they can only vote on one thing before they have to resign?
gollark: Fascinating.
gollark: I thought they stopped hereditary peerages from hereditating.
