Abstract :
The understanding of biological systems remains one of our primary scientific activities. A primary goal of biological research is the development of accurate models that can be used to explain biological processes, with predictive models particularly promising for drug development, epidemiology, bio-engineering, and genetic applications. We discuss the use of VHDL-AMS for developing highly predictive, accurate models of cellular processes
