+MCSim is a general purpose modeling and simulation program which also
+performs standard or Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations. It allows
+you to specify a set of linear or nonlinear equations (eventually
+differential), and solve them using parameter values you choose or
+parameter values sampled from specified statistical distributions.
+Simulation outputs can be compared to experimental data for parameter
+estimation.
