  • Publication number: 20080134140
    Abstract: Embodiments in accordance with the present invention relate to a platform facilitating different drug development software programs. In one embodiment, the integrated software platform includes a graphical environment for creating, storing, and manipulating workflows. The workflows depict operations that are to be performed by certain functional objects, and the flow of information between those objects. One example of an object is a model of drug behavior, disposition, and/or physiological response to drug activity, and certain embodiments allow for the graphical creation and editing of such a model. Other embodiments provide a user with the ability to easily overlay model predicted valves with observed data.

  • Patent number: 7043415
    Abstract: A method for interactively constructing pharmacological computational models is disclosed. A graphical user interface is presented through which a user may place and connect objects representing pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic elements. As the objects are placed and connected, they are converted into an internal format representing the statements of the corresponding computational model. These statements are actively presented to the user in a summarized form, as the computational model is constructed, to enable immediate verification of the model. This summarized form may be a surface syntax showing key equations that make up the model, or they may be graphs of behavior of one or more user-selected variables.
