ltcs-calculator: largest thermodynamically consistent sets of elementary flux modes

Given a set of elementary flux modes (EFMs), ltcs-calculator calculates the largest thermodynamically consistent sets (LTCSs) of EFMs. An LTCS contains the maximum number of EFMs that can be combined to form a thermodynamically feasible flux distribution. ltcs-calculator is a collection of (command-line) software tools written in C and Perl.
