Agent-Based Modelling in Cellular Biology - Are we flexible yet?

Cellular Agent-Based Models are commonly employed to describe a variety biological systems. Over the course of the past years, many modeling tools have emerged which solve particular research questions. In this short opinion piece, we argue that existing frameworks lack flexibility compared to the inherent underlying complexity that they should be able to represent. We extract overarching principles of widely used software solutions across multiple domains and compare these with existing Agent-Based Models (ABMs). We come to the conclusion that existing ABMs lack in flexibility which hinders overall progress of the field.

crate2bib: Citing Rust crates made easy

crate2bib is a collection of tools designed to convert Rust crates hosted on crates.io into bibliography entries. It queries the server, extracts metadata from the given crate and also searches for possible CITATION.cff files within the repository that hosts the code of the crate in interest. From this information, it formats the provided information such as name, version, authors and generates entries for all available candidates. With this approach, crates can be cited easily and existing citations for published crates can be found. The tool can be used as a webapp, python package, command-line utility or Rust crate.

Zero Values of the TOV Equation

This thesis calculates the special-relativistic internal energy of a non-interacting gas. We derive an equation of state (EoS) which we apply to the Tollmann-Oppenheimer Volkoff (TOV) equation. Furthermore we present numerical results of the TOV equation for various configurations of a polytropic EoS. These results show that the zero values of the TOV equation compared to its non-relativistic counterpart, the Lane-Emden (LE) equation, are smaller for identical parameters. We present initial developments to a proof of this theorem. Furthermore, an additional exact solution and index $n=2$ of the LE equation was discovered.
