Example DFBA models

The current version is distributed with several examples related to Examples 6.2.1 and 6.3 in Harwood et al., 2016.

Examples example1 and example2 are based on Hanly & Henson, 2011 and also Example 1 in DFBAlab. Example example5 implements the same model as example1, but uses the direct method in place of Algorithm 1 from Harwood et al., 2016. Conversely, example3 and example4 are based on Hanly & Henson, 2011.

Genome-scale Metabolic Networks

The genome-scale metabolic models used in these examples are provided in the directory sbml-models
