Summary: | Motivated by a family of related hybrid multiscale models, we have developed an object-oriented framework for developing and implementing multiscale models of vascular tumour growth. We use the models implemented in our framework as a case study to highlight how object-oriented programming techniques and good object-oriented design may be used effectively to develop hybrid multiscale models of vascular tumour growth. The hope is that this paper will serve as a useful reference for researchers modelling complex biological systems and that these researchers will employ some of the techniques presented herein in their own projects. |
