Rationale

There is a limited availability of programs to simulate and perform qualitative analysis of biological systems, but among them, Cell Net Analyzer⁽³⁾ is one of the most versatile. At the MUVAL⁽²⁾ site is available a web service to transform a file accomplishing with the Cell Net Analyzer format in another which allow to deal with an extended multi-valued logic approach based on graded inhibitions⁽⁴⁾.

In addition, Boolean and multi-valued logic models both can benefit by further complementary studies which are offered by other free programs, such as Cytoscape⁽⁵⁾, BINOM⁽⁶⁾, Diva⁽⁷⁾, MFINDER⁽⁸⁾. However, a drawback arises from the fact that these programs use a format different from that the used in Cell Net Analyzer.
