The Case for Using Markup for Biomechanical Modelling

INTRODUCTION Approaches to modelling biological systems take many forms. The mathematical, computational and encapsulated components of biomechanical models can be diverse in terms of complexity and scale, as well as in published implementation (mathematics, source code, and executable files). Markup languages for biomodelling have emerged as a solution to unifying approaches to publishing models to the research community.
