+COPASI is a package for modeling and simulation of biochemical networks,
+popular in the field of systems biology.
+
+COPASI is a stand-alone program that simulates models of biochemical
+networks using ODE solvers or Gillespie's stochastic simulation
+algorithm. COPASI is compatible with models in SBML format. It also
+performs several analyses, such as steady state, stability, parameter
+sensitivity, elementary modes, Lyapunov exponents, optimization, and
+parameter estimation. Data can be visualized in plots, histograms and
+animations of network diagrams. COPASI's GUI is based on QT, but a
+command line version is also included that allows for processing
+computations in batch mode.
+
+COPASI is a collaboration between research groups at the Virginia
+Bioinformatics Institute, University of Heidelberg, University of
+Manchester and previously in the EML-Research.
