Abstract :
The article discusses the accuracy mathematical modeling languages (MML) for biomedicine, for example in cardiac electrophysiology. Unit balance checking is showed that it can be automated. The implemented example is JSim (http://www.physiome.org/ jsim/), which is general and can be applied to other systems in which units can be specified and checked. ODE-based simulator Physiome CellML Environment is also discussed.
