The main point of information is the webpage: http://co.mbine.org/events/HARMONY_2012 A Google+ page is also available. https://plus.google.com/118242948876683323405 The official twitter hashtag is #harmony2012 https://twitter.com/#!/search/%23harmony2012 The program is being designed and will evolve through a Google doc. More later. As usual the presentations, video recording, and any material available will be made up available through the webpage. I am looking forward to this second HARMONY </pre> Nicolas Le Novère 2012-05-18T09:41:43 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.cellml.general/1717 <pre>Hi Alan, thanks for your support as well.

It can be downloaded from http://www.cellml.org/tools/downloads/cellml_api/releases/1.11 CellML API version 1.11 fixes a number of bugs in the CellML API version 1.10, including some affecting code generation. It adds a new service, the CellML Generics and Reflection Service, and features improved documentation. The C++ interface has changed to allow more idiomatic STL-based C++ code to be written. Python support has been separated out into a separate package that provides more convenient, more idiomatic Python support. Please report any issues you find with the CellML API version 1.11, or direct any requests for support, to the Physiome tracker at https://tracker.physiomeproject.org/, to cellml-tools-developers-+N4dcC6UsuQdnm+yROfE0A&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org, or directly to ak.miller-1/NbpDiVQt7jvIOssrGNKg&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org Best wishes, Andrew Miller </pre> Andrew Miller 2012-05-02T00:53:07 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.cellml.general/1711 <pre>Hi, There will be a brief outage following a software upgrade for the CellML website (www.cellml.org) and the model repository (models.cellml.org). The outage is to be occur on 2012-04-29 between the hours of 18:30-20:00 UTC (or Monday morning 7:30am to 9:00am for the people in Auckland). The length of the outage on each of the server is expected to last no longer than a few minutes. As according to ITS, this one should actually happen as final approval have been granted; the maintenance windows previous announced was never used.

Right now, both sets of files are being extracted to "cellml-sdk-1.11-Win32-MSVC10". Maybe we could have "cellml-sdk-1.11-Win32-MSVC10-release" and "cellml-sdk-1.11-Win32-MSVC10-debug" or something along those lines?

This can be used to write generic code that works over the entire API without needing to hard-code the details of the part of the API being called. This has application for creating certain types of user interfaces, as well as for creating language bindings. * The Python bindings have been re-written and are now shipped as a Python egg, separately from the CellML API itself. The new Python bindings use the Generics &amp; Reflection service to provide a more idiomatic and more convenient interface to the CellML API from Python. * A number of bugfixes have been made, including bugfixes to the code generation which could have resulted in bad numerical results. * The C++ interface has been revised to be more idiomatic - strings are now returned using the STL std::string and std::wstring types, and sequences are returned as std::vector types. Objects are returned using the already_AddRefd wrapper so users no longer need to use the RETURN_INTO_OBJREF macro to manage reference counts easily, instead they can simply assign into an ObjRef. The RETURN_INTO_OBJREF macros remain available for legacy code.

For this reason, M&amp;S is gaining a primary role in many industrial and research fields, such as space, critical infrastructures, manufacturing, emergency management, biomedical systems and sustainable future. However, as the complexity of the investigated systems increases and the types of investigations widens, the cost of M&amp;S activities increases for the more complex models and for the communications among a wider number and variety of M&amp;S stakeholders (e.g., sub-domain experts, simulator users, simulator engineers, and final system users). To address the increasing costs of M&amp;S activities, collaborative technologies must be introduced to support these activities by fostering the sharing and reuse of models, by facilitating the communications among M&amp;S stakeholders, and more generally by integrating processes, tools and platforms. Aside from seeking applications of collaborative technologies to M&amp;S activities, the track seeks innovative contributions that deal with the application of M&amp;S practices to the design of collaborative environments. These environments are continuously becoming more complex, and therefore their design requires systematic approaches to meet the required quality of collaboration. This is important for two reasons: to reduce rework activities on the actual collaborative environment, and to maximize the productivity and the quality of the process the collaborative environment supports. M&amp;S offers the methodologies and tools for such investigations and therefore it can be used to improve the quality of collaborative environments. A non–exhaustive list of topics of interest includes: * collaborative environments for M&amp;S * collaborative Systems of Systems M&amp;S * workflow modelling for collaborative environments and processes * agent-based M&amp;S * collaborative distributed simulation * collaborative component-based M&amp;S * net-centric M&amp;S * web-based M&amp;S * model sharing and reuse * model building and evaluation * modeling and simulation of business processes * modeling for collaboration * simulation-based performance evaluation of collaborative networks * model-driven simulation engineering * domain specific languages for the simulation of collaborative environments * domain specific languages for collaborative M&amp;S * databases and repositories for M&amp;S * distributed virtual environments * virtual research environment for M&amp;S * collaborative DEVS M&amp;S To stimulate creativity, however, the track maintains a wider scope and invites interested researchers to present contributions that offer original perspectives on collaboration and M&amp;S. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ On-Line Submissions and Publication +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ CoMetS'12 intends to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss key issues, approaches, open problems, innovative applications and trends in the track research area. This year, we will accept submissions in two forms: (1) papers (2) poster and industrial presentations (1) Papers should contain original contributions not published or submitted elsewhere. Papers up to six pages (including figures, tables and references) can be submitted. Papers should follow the IEEE format, which is single spaced, two columns, 10 pt Times/Roman font. All submissions should be electronic (in PDF) and will be peer-reviewed by at least three program committee members. Accepted full papers will be included in the proceedings and published by the IEEE Computer Society Press (IEEE approval pending). Please note that at least one author for each accepted paper should register to attend WETICE 2012 (http://www.wetice.org) to have the paper published in the proceedings. (2) Posters should describe a practical, on-the-field, experience in any domain area using collaborative M&amp;S. The poster submission requires the submission of an abstract for evaluation from the organizers. Accepted abstract must be followed by the submission of a poster which will be displayed at conference time. With the poster submission, a short (15 minutes) slot might be allocated for oral presentation illustrating the industrial case. The presentation may also include a live demo, but it should not include commercial details. Interested authors and participants may contact the organizers for expression of interests and content appropriateness at any time. Papers and posters can be submitted in PDF format at the submission site (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=comets2012), which is supported by the EasyChair conference management system.

Aside from seeking applications of collaborative technologies to M&amp;S activities, the track seeks innovative contributions that deal with the application of M&amp;S practices to the design of collaborative environments. These environments are continuously becoming more complex, and therefore their design requires systematic approaches to meet the required quality of collaboration. This is important for two reasons: to reduce rework activities on the actual collaborative environment, and to maximize the productivity and the quality of the process the collaborative environment supports. M&amp;S offers the methodologies and tools for such investigations and therefore it can be used to improve the quality of collaborative environments. A non–exhaustive list of topics of interest includes: * collaborative environments for M&amp;S * collaborative Systems of Systems M&amp;S * workflow modelling for collaborative environments and processes * agent-based M&amp;S * collaborative distributed simulation * collaborative component-based M&amp;S * net-centric M&amp;S * web-based M&amp;S * model sharing and reuse * model building and evaluation * modeling and simulation of business processes * modeling for collaboration * simulation-based performance evaluation of collaborative networks * model-driven simulation engineering * domain specific languages for the simulation of collaborative environments * domain specific languages for collaborative M&amp;S * databases and repositories for M&amp;S * distributed virtual environments * virtual research environment for M&amp;S * collaborative DEVS M&amp;S To stimulate creativity, however, the track maintains a wider scope and invites interested researchers to present contributions that offer original perspectives on collaboration and M&amp;S. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ On-Line Submissions and Publication +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ CoMetS'12 intends to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss key issues, approaches, open problems, innovative applications and trends in the track research area. This year, we will accept submissions in two forms: (1) papers (2) poster and industrial presentations (1) Papers should contain original contributions not published or submitted elsewhere. Papers up to six pages (including figures, tables and references) can be submitted. Papers should follow the IEEE format, which is single spaced, two columns, 10 pt Times/Roman font. All submissions should be electronic (in PDF) and will be peer-reviewed by at least three program committee members. Accepted full papers will be included in the proceedings and published by the IEEE Computer Society Press (IEEE approval pending). Please note that at least one author for each accepted paper should register to attend WETICE 2012 (http://www.wetice.org) to have the paper published in the proceedings. (2) Posters should describe a practical, on-the-field, experience in any domain area using collaborative M&amp;S. The poster submission requires the submission of an abstract for evaluation from the organizers. Accepted abstract must be followed by the submission of a poster which will be displayed at conference time. With the poster submission, a short (15 minutes) slot might be allocated for oral presentation illustrating the industrial case. The presentation may also include a live demo, but it should not include commercial details. Interested authors and participants may contact the organizers for expression of interests and content appropriateness at any time. Papers and posters can be submitted in PDF format at the submission site (https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=comets2012), which is supported by the EasyChair conference management system. Please feel free to contact the track chairs (comets2012-bC77Qfv0vuxrovVCs/uTlw&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org) if you experience problems with the EasyChair Web site. +++++++++++++++ Important Dates +++++++++++++++ * Submission Deadline: March 26, 2012 **** Extended deadline **** * Notification to authors: April 16, 2012 * Camera Ready to IEEE: April 30, 2012 * Conference dates: June 25 - June 27, 2012 ++++++++++++++++++++ Organizing Committee ++++++++++++++++++++ * Andrea D'Ambrogio, University of Roma TorVergata, Italy * Daniele Gianni, European Space Agency, The Netherlands * Joachim Fuchs, European Space Agency, The Netherlands * Giuseppe Iazeolla, University of Roma TorVergata, Italy +++++++++++++++++ Program Committee +++++++++++++++++ * Santiago Balestrini, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA * Massimo Bandecchi, European Space Agency, The Netherlands * Joseph Giampapa, SEI, Carnegie Mellon University, USA * Alain Kerbrat, CollESys - AFIS, France * Axel Lehmann, Universitaet der Bundeswehr Muenchen, Germany * Cristiano Leorato, Rhea, The Netherlands * Steve McKeever, University of Oxford, UK * David Nickerson, Auckland Bioengineering Institute, NZ * Alfred Park, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA * Wolfgang Prinz, Fraunhofer FIT and RWTH Aachen, Germany * José L.

HARMONY is a hackathon-type meeting, with a focus on development of the standards, interoperability and infrastructure. There is generally not many general discussions or oral presentations during HARMONY; instead, the time is devoted to allowing hands-on hacking and interaction between people focused on practical development of software and standards. The HARMONY 2012 meeting will be hosted by the Department of Bioinformatics from Maastricht University. The maximum number of participants is 70. Please register using the following form  http://harmony2012.eventbrite.com. We are trying to get more funding to support the accommodation costs of the participants. We have agreed to special room rates with the Apart Hotel Randwyck and the NH hotel. The participants have to book the hotel rooms themselves. For further information please have a look at http://co.mbine.org/events/HARMONY_2012#Accommodation. The conference dinner will take place on the evening of Wednesday 23rd May at Ipanema. On the first meeting day (Monday 21st May) there will be an open symposium with tutorials, talks and a reception/poster session in the evening. A full schedule and further information will be provided on the meeting website www.co.mbine.org/events/HARMONY_2012 We are looking forward to welcome you all in Maastricht. For any further questions, please contact us (harmony2012-LlybCCYiBJPdVUpkaGVLrDX+bSyKNMdj&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org).

The CellML API version I used was a specific snapshot of the CellML API some time after 1.10 was released and not the 1.11, and that one fixed one of the MATLAB code generation issue. Regards, Tommy.

If you encountered any issues with this update please file a tracker item that blocks the following tracker item: https://tracker.physiomeproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3211 New features that were added for this release includes more CellML specific searching (for models.cellml.org) and updated the CellML API to version 1.11. Some internal code changes were made also to support some future features. Regards, Tommy. </pre> Tommy Yu 2012-02-14T22:10:16 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.text.xml.cellml.general/1698 <pre>Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce the twenty-first release of BioModels Database (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/biomodels/). Important changes are happening or announced in this message, so please read further. In this release, 68 new models have been published and numerous existing models have been updated. The public version of BioModels Database now contains 409 models in the curated and 420 in the non-curated branch. Together, these 829 models comprise 130800 species, 151274 relationships (which include reactions, rate rules, events and assignment rules), and 106210 cross-references. Along with the data release, we would like to announce several important changes. First of all, in addition to the SBML version of each model with annotations encoded with MIRIAM URNs, BioModels Database now provides a second SBML file with annotations encoded using Identifiers.org URLs. Those files can be accessed from the "Download SBML" menu displayed on the top left of any model page and from the models archives (now provided from the EBI FTP server). BioModels Database will serve the URN form as the default until the next release of the database. Then the URL form will be provided as the default. The files with the URN annotations will still be available for a while. We encourage software developers to consider the Identifiers.org version of MIRIAM URIs for any new development. Moreover, after consultation with BioModels Database's Scientific Advisory Board and to be more in agreement with the EBI terms of use, it was decided that from the next release, the BioModels.net Team will abandon its copyright on the encoded form of the models and release them in the public domain. Finally various improvements were made to the underlying software infrastructure. The main publicly visible change is the fact that a bug, dealing with the handling of annotations in the non-curated branch, has been discovered and subsequently fixed. This results in an major increase in the number of annotations from models in the non-curated branch. However, we would like to emphasise that those annotations were provided during submission and are not checked by our curators. For more information about this release, please refer to the release notes: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/biomodels-main/static-pages.do?page=release_20120208 We would like to thank all our collaborators, founders and submitters. We also want to thank the SBML community for their support and the tools they develop and provide. BioModels Database is the result of numerous current and past collaborations and has received funding from multiple sources.
