Downloading RELNET

The RELNET software is for academic and non-profit use only; commercial use is allowed with a signed licensing agreement.

A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) must first be installed before downloading the RELNET software. Though this is automatically provided by many modern operating systems, one can download and install this for free from Sun Microsystems if needed.

The current version of RELNET is version 2.0 beta 22, and can be downloaded here. Save this file as Relnet.jar. There is currently no installer. To run this software, open a terminal window (Linux or Mac OS X) or Command Prompt (Windows), move to the appropriate directory where the program was downloaded, and type java -Xmx500m -jar Relnet.jar .

The RELNET software is currently in beta testing. The current version no longer expires and has limited support. Users finding bugs are encouraged to e-mail Atul Butte with comments.

After the beta testing period has completed, users eventually will need to download a new version from this page. Academic and non-profit users will be required to download, print and sign this licensing agreement.

Please note: availability of the server component of RELNET (i.e. graph layout and lookup of gene symbols) will be limited between April and June 2005, due to my moving to Stanford University.
