title = "The systems biology markup language (SBML): A medium for representation and exchange of biochemical network models",
abstract = "Motivation: Molecular biotechnology now makes it possible to build elaborate systems models, but the systems biology community needs information standards if models are to be shared, evaluated and developed cooperatively. Results: We summarize the Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) Level 1, a free, open, XML-based format for representing biochemical reaction networks. SBML is a software-independent language for describing models common to research in many areas of computational biology, including cell signaling pathways, metabolic pathways, gene regulation, and others.",

note = "Funding Information: This work has been supported by: the Japan Science and Technology Corporation{\textquoteright}s ERATO Kitano Symbiotic Systems Project; an International Joint Research Grant from the NEDO/Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry; and the Rice Genome and Simulation Project from the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture. Funding Information: The current inability to exchange models between different simulation and analysis tools has its roots in the lack of a common format for describing models. To address this, we formed a Software Platforms for Systems Biology forum under the auspices of the ERATO Kitano Systems Biology Project (funded by the Japan Science and Technology Corporation and hosted in part at the California Institute of Technology). The forum initially included representatives from the teams developing the software packages BioSpice (Arkin, 2001), Cellerator (Shapiro and Mjolsness, 2001), DBsolve (Goryanin et al., 1999), E-CELL (Tomita et al., 2001), Gepasi (Mendes, 1997), Jarnac (Sauro, 2000), StochSim (Morton-Firth and Bray, 1998), and Virtual Cell (Schaff et al., 2001), and later grew to include the developers of ProMoT/DIVA (Ginkel et al., 2000) and the CellML language at the University of Auckland and Physiome Sciences (Hedley et al., 2001).",
