STEPS Description
Package for exact stochastic simulation of reaction-diffusion systems STEPS is a free and open source package for exact stochastic simulation of reaction-diffusion systems in arbitrarily complex 3D geometries. The core simulation algorithm is an implementation of Gillespie's SSA, extended to deal with diffusion of molecules over the elements of a 3D tetrahedral mesh.While STEPS was mainly developed for simulating detailed models of neuronal signaling pathways in dendrites and around synapses, it's also a general tool and can be used for studying any biochemical pathway in which spatial gradients and morphology are thought to play a role. Requirements: · Python 2.5 or later
