The Kinetic Simulation Algorithm Ontology (KiSAO) is an ontology that describes simulation algorithms and methods used for biological kinetic models, and the relationships between them. This provides a means to unambiguously refer to simulation algorithms when describing a simulation experiment.

Pattern for Local Unique Identifiers

Local identifiers in Kinetic Simulation Algorithm Ontology should match this regular expression:
^\d+$

Example Local Unique Identifier
0000057   Resolve
Pattern for CURIES

Compact URIs (CURIEs) constructed from Kinetic Simulation Algorithm Ontology should match this regular expression:
^biomodels\.kisao:\d+$

Example CURIE
biomodels.kisao:0000057
MIRIAM Namespace Embedded in LUI
The legacy MIRIAM standard for generating CURIEs with this resource annotates the namespaceEmbeddedInLUI as true. This means that you may see local unique identifiers that include a redundant prefix and delimiter (also known as a banana) and therefore look like a CURIE. For Kinetic Simulation Algorithm Ontology, the banana looks like KISAO_. Therefore, you may see local unique identifiers for this resource that look like KISAO_0000057 (instead of the canonical form 0000057) and CURIEs for this resource that look like biomodels.kisao:KISAO_0000057 (instead of the canonical form biomodels.kisao:0000057). The Bioregistry will automatically strip off the banana when standardizing local unique identifiers and CURIEs.
