[edit] PathwayAnalyser

PathwayAnalyser (PA) is a tool for systems biologists for analysis of metabolic pathways, particularly by Flux Balance Analysis and ODE simulation. PA interfaces with the GNU Linear Programming Toolkit (GLPK) for linear programming, as well as with Taylor for performing high precision simulations (e.g. using GMP). OOQP is used for quadratic programming/MoMA. It can give a comprehensive report on gene deletions from the Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) Model input. It is currently a command-line tool but a GUI may be added soon.

It is written in C++ and uses libSBML and GLPK. PA is meant for linux (excl. cygwin at the moment) but it is planned that it will be usable in all platforms in the future.

[edit] Math Assistant

I wrote this little piece of software sometime in 2000 July... pretty childish, but I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Check out http://sourceforge.net/projects/mathassist. That's my sourceforge page, which I recently created. It's got sources as well for v1.0 and v2.0b. Reasonably old files, but contains some interesting stuff for beginners. This was created pretty much when I knew little about coding, or even Computational Science.. never found much time to update it... do have a look.

• Version 1.0 - BTech 1st Year holidays (2000 JUNE)
• Version 2.0b - BTech holidays (2003 JULY)

Wish I could add to this sometime with the newfound knowledge in my MTech!

[edit] Description

Math Assistant is a software designed to carry out a number of routine tasks in mathematics. It is ended for low-end use and features easy navigation and quick results. It contains a number of simple modules listed below:

• Large Integer Adder & Subtracter
• Fractions
• Base Conversions
• Determinants
• Reciprocal (upto 2000 digits)
• GCD/LCD/Factors
• Random Numbers
• ROMAN Numerals
• Prime Numbers
• Statistics
• Regression
• Solution of Triangles
• Quadratic Equations
• Physical Constants
• Vectors
• Date Calculations
• Linear Equations

This program is basically a compilation of a number of small modules that I had programmed out of general curiosity and interest. I am particularly interested in computations, number theory and currently in the application of computer science to the solution of problems.

[edit] Accolades

1. Ranked 3rd among downloads in the Math Section of softseek.com for the week ending July 31, 2000.
2. Rated as popular in c|net download.com in the Math Section. Math Assistant clocked 2529 downloads in c|net between June 27, 2002 & June 27, 2003. See c|net project page.
3. Math Assistant freeware was selected to appear in a monthly CD-ROM (Aug/Sep 2002) publication published by Software 2010. About Software 2010: "Software 2010 is a company based in Carlsbad, CA. The CD-ROM is distributed every four weeks to approximately 12,000 subscribers, the majority of whom are not connected to the Internet. Our CD-ROM service gives them access to the best shareware and demos that they are not able to download themselves. Most of our subscribers are in the United Kingdom and Australia, and a few are in the United States."
4. It now appears to have been downloaded over 22,000 times (I wonder how many people struggled on tripod which banned .exe files overnight!) and also has the popular tag!
