Beta Workbench (BetaWB) is a free downloadable software prototype for non commercial purposes (see below) upon acceptance of this licence. BetaWB is a collection of tools based on the programming language BlenX, explicitly designed to represent biological entities and their interactions. The BetaWB includes the BetaWB simulator, a stochastic simulator based on an efficient variant of the Gillespie Stochastic Simulation Algorithm (SSA), the BetaWB designer, a graphical editor for developing models and the BetaWB plotter, a tool to analyse the results of a stochastic simulation run. The current version of BetaWB is beta 2.0. Notable improvements and additions since the last main release include:
new language primitives;
parametric processes and boxes definitions;
user-defined rate functions, variables and constants;
transition system and CTMC generation;
SBML models export.
