MML: towards a Multiscale Modeling Language

AbstractRecent multiscale applications require more and more often the coupling of many sub-models, usually originating form different fields of science. Therefore, it is increasingly important to propose an effective description language that can help scientists with different background to co-develop a multiscale application. We propose a Multiscale Modeling Language (MML) i.e. a description language aiming at specifying the architecture of a multiscale simulation program. We will illustrate this approach by proposing a MML description of a computer model for restenosis in a stented vessel
