Stiles Stefan Wils Erik De Schutter Published online: 8 May 2007 # Humana Press Inc. 2007 Abstract Neuroscience increasingly uses computational vested in the development of software tools and technologies models to assist in the exploration and interpretation of for numerical simulations and for the creation and publication complex phenomena. As a result, considerable effort is in- of models. The diversity of related tools leads to the duplication of effort and hinders model reuse. Development R. C. Cannon :F. W.
