Abstract

Computational modeling tools have increasingly important roles in our understanding of biological processes. Computer simulations guide experimental and clinical efforts in an unprecedented rate. This study presents ENteric Immunity Simulator - multiscale modeling (MSM) platform developed for high performance computing (HPC). ENISI MSMv2 is designed for modeling mucosal immune responses. The system scales to 109 agents in HPC simulations. This is an important step towards building large scale information processing representations of immune responses that integrate multiple modeling technologies and spatiotemporal scales ranging from nanoseconds to years and from molecules to systems. Our HPC-driven ENISI MSM platform combines the study of molecular pathways controlling T cell differentiation and tissue level interactions between cells to characterize novel mechanisms of immunoregulation at the gut mucosa.
