Nanonetworking is a new interdisciplinary research area including nanotechnology, biotechnology, and ICT. In this paper, we present a novel simulation platform designed for modeling information exchange at nanoscales. This platform is adaptable to any kind of nano bearer, i.e. any mechanism used to transport information, such as electromagnetic waves or calcium ions. Moreover, it includes a set of configuration functions in order to adapt to different types of biological environments. In this paper, we provide a throughout description of the simulation libraries. In addition, we demonstrate their capabilities by modeling a section of a lymph node and the information transfer within it, which happens between antibody molecules produced by the immune system during the humoral immune response.
