BioPSE - Biomedical Problem Solving

University of Utah

Problem solving environment for modelling bioelectric field problems

Summary Assembled by Curation Team
Software: Simulation Application

The Biomedical Problem Solving Environment, or BioPSE, incorporates and integrates several problem solving components in a single, unified, extensible problem solving environment. The functionality that results includes the ability to manage each step in a sequential computing process, and to create batch processes that execute repeated simulations. However, the functionality that sets BioPSE apart from most integrated software environments is the ability to intervene and control execution anywhere in the chain at any time during its execution. This ability to control a computer program during execution is termed computational steering. To provide a non-technical analogy, adding computational steering to a software environment is similar to adding the ability to occasionally switch tracks to train travel. A train passenger can get on the train and automatically get to a new destination, leaving all the details of the individual actions to the rail system machinery and staff. But the route and the destination are fixed. Steering would permit each passenger to request that train take a new route, with different stops, and even a different destination, and be able to make these decisions at any time during the trip. In the more rigorous example of the defibrillation simulation, computational steering allows a scientist to interactively change parameters and settings as the simulation executes, both as a single run or in batch mode. Steering interventions might include adjusting electrode locations to stay within anatomically reasonable bounds or geometric model resolution in order to balance accuracy and execution time.
