About GenMAPP-CS
GenMAPP-CS is developed as an open-source, Java-based program, incorporating the Cytoscape core to utilize its graph-rendering capabilities, while adding GenMAPP-specific functionality. Our development strategy is two-fold: implementing necessary modifications to the Cytoscape core and adding specialized features for GenMAPP-CS. The Cytoscape program is designed with a highly generalized core, and special features are incorporated as plugins to the core program rather than as part of the core. This design complements the overall implementation strategy of GenMAPP-CS, since many GenMAPP-specific features can be conceptualized as plugins.
