model¶
The model is a formal representation of system. The model is describe in terms of components. There are 4 component classes:
genes which are mandatory
genes which are accessory
genes which are neutral
genes which are forbiden
Each genes can have Exchangeable. An exchangeable is another gene which can paly the same role in the system. Usualy an analog or homolog. The models describe also distance constraints between genes:
inter_gene_max_space
loner
multi_loci
and quorum constraints
min_mandatory_genes_required
min_genes_required
and if a gene can be shared by several systems (several occurrences of the same model)
multisystem
