Abstract

Cellstorm is a software system that allows a rapid visualization of genes and subcellular networks. Given a set of genes, expression levels, structural hierarchy and network's data, Cellstorm displays the networks at any level of the hierarchy and provides a set of user options such as zooming, network selection and list filtering.

Although Cellstorm is mainly aimed at biological applications, it can be used in any field that needs to display networks. Cellstorm achieves this by avoiding application-specific assumptions.
