Have another team utilize the software developed by your team we worked with BU and MIT during our user centered design development cycle and tested Moclo Planner with the BU and MIT iGEM teams and Wellesley students Use SBOL in your software documentation MoClo Planner uses SBOL symbols to communicate about parts as part of its core functionality The MoClo Planner incorporates SBOL symbols into the user interface to clearly communicate part type information. The visual representation of each biological part includes the symbol for quick recognition and reduction of the text burden. In conjunction with the MoClo Planner's touch-based interactions, the SBOL symbols contribute to a more immersive user experience that comes nearer to the direct manipulation of biological parts. While the symbols are clearly different, the MoClo Planner uses additional color cues to aid user recognition. Due to the number of parts displayed, the amount of space available for each part and its displayed data is very limited. Color allowed us to minimize the space occupied by the image while keeping visuals distinct. But because our color scheme is unique to the MoClo Planner, there may be conflicts with other instances of colored SBOL symbols, which may also reduce the effectiveness of color as a visual cue. A possible solution could be to use a standard set of colors for the SBOL symbols.

Provide a detailed, draft specification for the next version of your software tool MoClo Planner Synflo SynBio Search Provide a demonstration of their software as a video tutorial on their wiki MoClo Planner, Synflo, and SynBio Search video tutorials can be found on our downloads and tutorials page

Register the team, have a great summer, and have fun attending the Jamboree Create and share a description of the team's project via the iGEM wiki Project Overview Present a Poster and Talk at the iGEM Jamboree Develop and make available via the The Registry of Software Tools an open source software tool that supports synthetic biology based on BioBrick standard biological parts All our source code can be downloaded on our downloads and tutorials page
