Stochastic High-level Petri Nets and Applications
A class of stochastic Petri nets called stochastic high-level Petri nets (SHLPNs) is proposed. SHLPNs are high-level Petri nets augmented with exponentially distributed firing times. SHLPNs generally lead to models with a smaller state space. A computer marking concept is introduced that allows a considerable reduction of the number of states and ...

Using Colored Stochastic Petri Net (CS-PN) software for protocol specification, validation, and evaluation [PDF]
The specification, verification, validation, and evaluation, which make up the different steps of the CS-PN software are outlined. The colored stochastic Petri net software is applied to a Wound/Wait protocol decomposable into two principal modules ...

Bisimulation Relations Between Automata, Stochastic Differential Equations and Petri Nets [PDF]
Two formal stochastic models are said to be bisimilar if their solutions as a stochastic process are probabilistically equivalent. Bisimilarity between two stochastic model formalisms means that the strengths of one stochastic model formalism can be used

Gene Flow Disruption and Population Declines in a Soil Arthropod in Fragmented Habitats
ABSTRACT The intensification of land use over past millennia has accelerated habitat loss and fragmentation. This is hypothesized to lead to reductions in population sizes and restrictions in gene flow, processes that amplify genetic drift with profound negative impacts on species and populations.

ABSTRACT Policy subsystems are comprised of competing advocacy coalitions, in which public and private political actors with shared belief systems learn from each other and coordinate their strategies in the pursuit of influencing policy making in their favor.

Computational Modeling for the Activation Cycle of G-proteins by G-protein-coupled Receptors
In this paper, we survey five different computational modeling methods. For comparison, we use the activation cycle of G-proteins that regulate cellular signaling events downstream of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) as a driving example.

Abstract Interventional radiology (IR) is an increasingly used medical specialty relying on the possibilities offered by medical imaging guidance technologies to perform minimally invasive procedures (both diagnostic and therapeutic) through very small incisions or body orifices.

An integrated approach for remanufacturing job shop scheduling with routing alternatives
Remanufacturing is a practice of growing importance due to increasing environmental awareness and regulations. However, the stochastic natures inherent in the remanufacturing processes complicate its scheduling.

Abstract Premise Species complexes are groups of closely related species with ambiguous delimitation, often composed of recently diverged lineages. Polyploidization and uniparental reproduction (i.e., selfing and apomixis) can play important roles in the origin of species complexes. These complexes pose challenges for species‐based scientific questions,

Abstract INTRODUCTION Red blood cells (RBCs) are crucial for oxygen delivery to active tissues and endure significant mechanical forces in the microcirculatory bed. The enrichment of mechanosensitive Piezo1 channels, linked to the cytoskeleton, aids RBCs in navigating the narrow capillaries.
