Protocol for biomodel engineering of unilevel to multilevel biological models using colored Petri nets.

ABSTRACT: Biological systems inherently span multiple levels, which can pose challenges in spatial representation for modelers. We present a protocol that utilizes colored Petri nets to construct and analyze biological models of systems, encompassing both unilevel and multilevel scenarios. We detail a modeling workflow exploiting the PetriNuts platform comprising a set of tools linked together via common file formats. We describe steps for modeling preparation, component-level modeling and analysis, followed by system-level modeling and analysis, and model use.
