A General Method for Numerically Simulating the Stochastic Time Evolution of Coupled Chemical Reactions
TL;DR: In this paper, an exact method is presented for numerically calculating, within the framework of the stochastic formulation of chemical kinetics, the time evolution of any spatially homogeneous mixture of molecular species which interreact through a specified set of coupled chemical reaction channels.
