In addition, applying a well-defined software engineering process and object-oriented methodology provide an effective means to capture specifications from experimental data and integrate the biological system information. Finally, this process provides a guideline for the development of an integrated biological system, represented as an object-oriented software architecture, in a widely accepted objectoriented modeling language (such as UML), which can facilitate communication about complex systems among software engineers, biologists and other users. To demonstrate the efficacy of a well-defined software engineering process in the translation of a biological system to a model grounded in object-oriented principles, we used UML in the development of a severe acquired respiratory syndrome-coronavirus (SARS-CoV) model.	./cache/cord-263450-v6vdg8os.txt	./txt/cord-263450-v6vdg8os.txt
