44.1 Introduction

Systems biology is an interdisciplinary field that aims at generating highly accurate in silico models with the available affluent omics data generated by high-throughput technologies [1]. These models promise to suggest experimentally testable hypotheses on underlying mechanisms as well as quantitatively predict the physiological behavior of complex biological systems. Several approaches for modeling cellular systems include kinetic modeling, Bayesian methods, constraint-based flux modeling, and Boolean approaches. Among them, the constraint-based reconstruction and analysis ...
