Conversion from CellML to SBML

CellML is an open standard based on the XML markup language like SBML. CellML is being developed by the Bioengineering Institute at the University of Auckland and affiliated research groups. The main difference between CellML and SBML is that the former is based on modules while the latter is based on hierarchical components.

Quick Setup

The conversion is performed in one XSLT pass, but using four stylesheets:

1. cellml_math.xsl
2. cellml_sbml.xsl
3. cellml_template.xsl
4. cellml_variable.xsl

To generate an SBML file from a CellML model, run:

Xalan MyModel_CellML.xml cellml_sbml.xsl > MyModel_SBML.xml
