A system for modeling, simulating and analyzing chemical and biochemical reactions includes a modeling environment for constructing a model of a chemical or biochemical system comprising a plurality of chemical reactions. The system also includes a simulation engine accepting as input said constructed model of the chemical or biochemical system and generating as output an expected result. The modeling environment includes a block diagram explorer for displaying a block diagram in a graphical user interface describing the system as a hierarchical network of interconnected blocks. Each block represents a species participating one of the chemical reactions or one of said chemical reactions in the system. The block diagram explorer allows for a user to manipulate and modify the graphical parameters of the block diagram representation to provide insight into the functionality and operation of the system being modeled.
