Here we collect information about similar software and their features in comparison with BioUML.

Comparisons made by third parties

  • Support of SBML standard can be measured by percentage of passed tests from test suite presented on SBML web site.
  • Extensive comparison of different simulators according to their speed and percentage of passed SBML tests was performed by Maggioli et al.[1]

Modeling tools comparison

This comparison was made in February 2022. Previous was done in 2019 and is available at separate page Tools Comparison.
