Installation

For installation instructions, please see the file INSTALL.md in the main repository directory.

Getting started

• Install the code as in INSTALL.md.

• Optional: Run ant doc to generate documentation. Pending

• We are currently working on developing scripts that will enable users to run simulations that will produce the results described in our publications. Stay tuned.

Repository directory structure

The repository has a number of subdirectories. Below is a guide to their contents:

• cfg/ : a collection of configuration files.
• docs/ : documentation, including a Quick Reference guide and, if the user generates Javadoc documentation, the outputs will also go in this directory.
• lib/ : 3rd party libraries used to compile and execute Bio-LT.
• scripts/ : scripts (Bash and Perl) used to execute Bio-LT simulations and data analysis.
• src/ : the source code for the purely Java portions of Bio-LT.

Summary of current capabilities

Currently, the software has the following capabilities:

• ToDo

Summary of planned future development

We plan to add the following additional capabilities in future versions of the software:
