Hierarchical Model Composition
SBML Level 3 Package Activity Status Page
Package objectives
Model composition refers to the ability to include models as submodels inside other models. This requires defining the interfaces between the models and rules for connecting parts of models together. The motivation is to enable the creation of standard, vetted models and use them as library components when creating larger models, much as is done in software development, electronics design, and other engineering fields.
The short label for this package is comp.
