SimFluVar Simulation tool for influenza virus variation

6. Saving/Reading Projects

Click on the project name from the project tree of SimFluVar program and select 'File>Save Project' menu to save the selected project as the designated file, which gets stored in '*.svf' format. This file can be read in project format when you select File-Load Project menu.

The 4 types of files produced from completing all these steps are generated automatically with a particular suffix added to the input file name. First, '*_SimFluVar_Summary.xls' file allows users to view the analysis process by providing basic information as the following: count produced from SimFluVar program's anaylsis phases; all input files used in execution of SimFluVar program and their route; total execution time; transition matrix values. SimFluVar program. Moreover, in order to grasp the change in base composition of wobble codon position within the codons in question, respective analysis data and tabularized results will be provided. Also, '*_SimFluVar_Count.xls', '*_SimFluVar_GCpattern.xls' and '*_SimFluVar_TM.txt' files are provided separately from data provided in the Summary file; among these, '*_ SimFluVar _TM.txt' file may be used through SimFlu program as a user parameter file in computer simulation of influenza virus without requiring extra work, thus promoting the efficiency of linking with SimFlu program. All results files get saved in the applicable project name folder within the same folder SimFluVar program is installed, "simfluvar_workspace" folder.
