SBML Level 3 Layout (“layout”)

This page summarizes the current development status of the SBML Level 3 Layout Package (known by the label “layout”). If you use this Package in your work, please cite the publication associated with the package in addition to the core Level 3 specification, to give credit to the package developers.

This table is generated automatically from the row for “layout” in the SBML Level 3 Package Status spreadsheet.

About the schemas: for finalized Level 3 Packages, libSBML and JSBML provide built-in validation, and the use of a schema is unnecessary. For not-yet-finalized Packages and applications not using libSBML or JSBML, the basic RELAX NG schemas enable syntactic validation using an RNG schema processor. A separate page provides more information about the use of schemas.

Notes about this specification

The “layout” specfication is considered stable and in use.
