Computer-aided modelling has focused on developing domain-specific frameworks. Despite being powerful stand-alone tools they can be challenging to incorporate into a multi-scale model whose inherent interdisciplinary nature leads to a heterogeneous set of languages and tools. However, tools and models can be made easier to adopt into future projects by making conscientious development choices based on software development techniques. This paper shares the experiences and software design options that were considered and employed in the development of the MoDeNa multi-scale modelling framework.
