- component based system possible to add/replace/delete components
- right panel: split of simulator in different components as required by the research project
- GUI split from other parts, a true user-level GUI, supporting user-level workflows
- model is configuration data for model container
- stimulation protocol and output is configuration data
- required level of simulation accuracy is configuration data
- configuration data can go under version control
