Title
Parallel Bioscape: A Stochastic And Parallel Language For Mobile And Spatial Interactions
Abstract
BioScape is a concurrent language motivated by the biological landscapes found at the interface of biology and biomaterials [5]. It has been motivated by the need to model antibacterial surfaces, biofilm formation, and the effect of DNAse in treating and preventing biofilm infections. As its predecessor, SPiM [12], BioScape has a sequential semantics based on Gillespie's algorithm [7], and its implementation does not scale beyond 1000 agents. However, in order to model larger and more realistic systems, a semantics that may take advantage of the new multi-core and GPU architectures is needed. This motivates the introduction of parallel semantics, which is the contribution of this paper: Parallel BioScape, an extension with fully parallel semantics.
