The elevation of Synthetic Biology from single cells to multicellular simulations would be a significant scale-up. The spatiotemporal behavior of cellular populations has the potential to be prototyped in silico for computer assisted design through ergonomic interfaces. Such a platform would have great practical potential across medicine, industry, research, education and accessible archiving in bioinformatics.

It supports an iterative workflow that begins with specification of the desired synthetic system, followed by simulation and verification of the system in high-performance environments and ending with the eventual compilation of the system specification into suitable genetic constructs. IBW integrates , , , and features into a single software suite.
