This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. The project focuses on expanding the VCell platform beyond the monolithic, single environment, single site system under which we have made VCell available until now. This will be achieved by developing several different classes of VCell applications: (i) the "classic" web-based problem-solving environment, instances of which will continue to be hosted at UCHC for public use, but with the additional capability of being mirrored by other public sites or being packaged for deployment on local sites; (ii) a stand-alone version, that can be installed on single computers without the need for network functionality and commercial third-party software (but with optional additional modules); (iii) a collection of VCell-derived "tools"  either dedicated modules or plug-ins (such as converters, solvers) or focused applications (such as virtual microscopy); and (iv) an enhanced web portal with direct access to the VCell database, coupled with a very lightweight "reader" application.

该子项目是利用资源的众多研究子项目之一 由 NIH/NCRR 资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 并且子项目的主要研究者可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其他 NIH 来源。 子项目可能列出的总成本 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， NCRR 赠款不直接向子项目或子项目工作人员提供资金。 该项目的重点是扩展 VCell 平台，使其超越我们迄今为止提供的单一环境、单站点系统。这将通过开发几种不同类别的 VCell 应用程序来实现：(i) “经典”的基于 Web 的问题解决环境，其实例将继续托管在 UCHC 供公众使用，但具有附加的镜像功能通过其他公共站点或打包部署在本地站点； (ii) 独立版本，可以安装在单台计算机上，无需网络功能和商业第三方软件（但具有可选的附加模块）； (iii) VCell 衍生“工具”的集合，可以是专用模块或插件（例如转换器、求解器）或重点应用程序（例如虚拟显微镜）； (iv) 增强的门户网站，可直接访问 VCell 数据库，并配有非常轻量级的“阅读器”应用程序。
