Multi-scale simulation is mainly aimed at integrating scientific knowledge through computational methods and across different physiological levels; ranging from molecular level, genomic level, cellular level, organ level up to human body part level. Such a framework of modeling has a fundamental role in the process of understanding and clarifying physiological mechanisms. Although several Internet services for multi-scale simulation (such as single level simulations, similarity searchs and data analysis services) has been released, researchers and users have expressed diffuculties in picking up the appropriate and the necessary service and model data for their own researches. Therefore, an urgent need for an infrastructure to enable multiscale simulations is in order. This article suggests an architecture of discovery of services and modeling data for multi-scale simulation using a namespace service.
