Description

pyLM is a Problem Solving Environment (PSE) for biological simulations [1]. Written in Python, it wraps and extends the highly optimized multi-GPU Lattice Microbes stochastic simulation software [2,3,4]. The PSE is comprised of a base set of functionality to set up, monitor and modify simulations, as well as a set of standard post-processing routines that interface to other Python packages, including NumPy, SciPy, H5py, iGraph to name a few. See [1] for additional information as well as the user guide on the main website. If you use pyLM in your simulations, please cite references [1] and [3] below.
