[. . . ] · Variant object -- Reference for variant objects in the SimBiology Reference. · "Desktop Example -- Applying Changes to Parameter Value Using a Variant" -- Example in a tutorial in the SimBiology Model Reference. In the SimBiology desktop, expand Model Variable Settings and double-click Variants to open the Variants pane. The SimBiology Desktop Help updates with more information on adding and setting variants. If the help is not open in the desktop, select Help > SimBiology Desktop Help. 38 Version 2. 2 (R2007b+) SimBiology® Software Support for Analysis Tasks in the Desktop The SimBiologydesktop now supports adding and managing analysis tasks through the following features: · "Task Manager" on page 39 · "Sensitivity Analysis in the Desktop" on page 40 · "Scanning and Scanning with Sensitivities in the Desktop" on page 41 · "Ensemble Simulation Runs in the Desktop" on page 41 · "Conserved Cycle Calculations in the Desktop" on page 41 · "Create Custom Analysis Tasks" on page 42 · "Generate Reports for Projects" on page 42 Task Manager The Task Manager lets you add and manage simulation and analysis tasks. The Model Session pane opens with the Task Manager listed on the right. 39 SimBiology® Release Notes Click a task to add it to your model. The desktop adds the task to the Project Explorer and opens the task pane. For more information on setting up and running a task in the desktop, open the task pane and select Help > SimBiology Desktop Help to see the context-sensitive help. Sensitivity Analysis in the Desktop Sensitivity analysis is now supported in the desktop. Sensitivity analysis was previously available only through command line. Sensitivity analysis lets you calculate the time-dependent sensitivities of a species specified in SpeciesOutputs with respect to species initial conditions and parameter values. 40 Version 2. 2 (R2007b+) SimBiology® Software See "Performing Sensitivity Analysis Using the Desktop" in the SimBiology User's Guide for more information. For more information on sensitivity analysis, see "Sensitivity Analysis" in the SimBiology User's Guide. Scanning and Scanning with Sensitivities in the Desktop You can perform species and parameter scanning analysis alone or in combination with sensitivity analysis in the desktop. Scan a parameter value or a species initial amount to determine the effect of a range of values of the parameter or species. Combine the scan with sensitivity analysis to explore the sensitivity of a species with respect to a range of values of a parameter or a species. For information on how to add the task to a model, see "Task Manager" on page 39. For more information on setting up and running the task in the desktop, open the task pane and select Help > SimBiology Desktop Help to see the context-sensitive help. You need a model in the desktop for this feature to be enabled. Ensemble Simulation Runs in the Desktop The SimBiologydesktop now supports ensemble simulations. You can perform ensemble simulations using the stochastic solvers to gather data from multiple stochastic runs of the model. See "Running Ensemble Simulations in the Desktop" in the SimBiology User's Guide for more information. You need a model in the desktop for this feature to be enabled. Conserved Cycle Calculations in the Desktop The SimBiologydesktop now supports conserved cycle calculations. This feature lets you calculate a complete set of linear conservation relations for the species in a SimBiology model object. For an introduction, see "Moiety Conservation" in the SimBiology User's Guide. 41 SimBiology® Release Notes For information on how to add the task to a model, see "Task Manager" on page 39. For more information on setting up and running the task in the desktop, open the task pane and select Help > SimBiology Desktop Help to see the context-sensitive help. [. . . ] Units · Stochastic solvers support dimensional analysis and unit conversion. · You can delete a unit that is being used in a model; however, you will see an error when you try to simulate the model or export to SBML. Submodels · The context menus (right-click options) for the Species, Reaction, Parameter and Rule nodes that appear beneath a submodel node all act on the corresponding parent model node, and not on the submodel node. For example, if you select Delete All Species in the submodel Species node, this selection deletes the species in the parent model. [. . . ]
