Install SBW and SBW Modules

If you are interested in time evolving simulation and analysis on biochemical networks, we recommend you to install the Systems Biology Workbench (SBW) and SBW-powered softwares before you install CellDesigner (*1).

Please check http://www.sbw-sbml.org/index.html and download the software from Software/Download section.

To install SBW and SBW-powered software:

CellDesigner 2.0 requires SBW 1.0.5. Follow the installation instructions.

As for CellDesigner, its installer can detect the SBW library which has been installed into the default path prompted by the SBW installer. The default path of SBW is ( C:\ERATO\lib ) for Windows, or the user home directory ( $HOME/SBW/lib) for Linux.(*2). If you change the default path of SBW, make sure you set the right path when you install CellDesigner.

If you would like to use CellDesigner alone right now, you can postpone this step until you need simulation and/or analysis.

(*1) Currently, (Sept, 2004) SBW is available on Windows and Linux.
(*2) Currently, (Sept, 2004) the number of SBW-powered simulator module on Linux is limited.
