X Abstract

The research on modeling and simulation of complex biological systems is getting more important in Systems Biology. In this respect, we have developed Hybrid Function Petri net (HFPN) that was newly developed from existing Petri net because of their intuitive graphical representation and their capabilities for mathematical analyses. However, in the process of modeling metabolic, gene regulatory or signal transduction pathways with the architecture, we have realized three extensions of HFPN, (i) an entity should be extended to contain more than one value, (ii) an entity should be extended to handle other primitive types, e.g. boolean, string, (iii) an entity should be extended to handle more advanced type called object that consists of variables and methods, are necessary for modeling biological systems with Petri net based architecture. To deal with it, we define a new enhanced Petri net called hybrid functional Petri net with extension (HFPNe). To demonstrate the effectiveness of the enhancements, we model and simulate with HFPNe four biological processes that are diffcult to represent with the previous architecture HFPN.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
