Introduction

As an introduction to modeling we've made a small presentation for the workout sessions of the first meeting. This presentation handles the following items:

  • some definitions
  • the difference between white box and black box models with an example
  • focus on the role of ODE's
  • the need for modeling
  • some modeling tools
  • and iGEM modeling

This presentation is mainly based on the wiki of ETH Zürich 2006/2007.

Modeling steps & important notes

  • The idea of a pulsgenerator as reset mechanism has been cancelled for the following reasons:
    • it takes too long before the proposed system generates a pulse-like event
    • the pulse itself is too long
    • a constant lactonase production sequence generates enough lactonase to reset the timer
  • More information about this problem and the solution can be found on Reset-page.
