摘要
我们介绍了一个名为 "模块化 Petri 网组装工具包"(MPAT)的 Python 软件包,它能让用户轻松创建各种空间配置的大规模模块化 Petri 网,包括广泛的空间网格或从 shapefile 导出的网格,并添加异构信息层。Petri 网是计算生物学和工程学领域强大的离散事件系统建模工具。然而,由于现有建模软件包的缺陷,它们在自动构建大规模空间模型方面的实用性受到了限制。MPAT 支持开发具有灵活空间几何结构的模块化 Petri 网模型,从而弥补了这一不足。
We present a Python package called Modular Petri Net Assembly Toolkit (MPAT) that empowers users to easily create large-scale, modular Petri Nets for various spatial configurations, including extensive spatial grids or those derived from shapefiles, augmented with heterogeneous information layers. Petri Nets are powerful discrete event system modeling tools in computational biology and engineering. However, their utility for automated construction of large-scale spatial models has been limited by gaps in existing modeling software packages. MPAT addresses this gap by supporting the development of modular Petri Net models with flexible spatial geometries.
期刊介绍:
SoftwareX aims to acknowledge the impact of software on today''s research practice, and on new scientific discoveries in almost all research domains. SoftwareX also aims to stress the importance of the software developers who are, in part, responsible for this impact. To this end, SoftwareX aims to support publication of research software in such a way that: The software is given a stamp of scientific relevance, and provided with a peer-reviewed recognition of scientific impact; The software developers are given the credits they deserve; The software is citable, allowing traditional metrics of scientific excellence to apply; The academic career paths of software developers are supported rather than hindered; The software is publicly available for inspection, validation, and re-use. Above all, SoftwareX aims to inform researchers about software applications, tools and libraries with a (proven) potential to impact the process of scientific discovery in various domains. The journal is multidisciplinary and accepts submissions from within and across subject domains such as those represented within the broad thematic areas below: Mathematical and Physical Sciences; Environmental Sciences; Medical and Biological Sciences; Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences. Originating from these broad thematic areas, the journal also welcomes submissions of software that works in cross cutting thematic areas, such as citizen science, cybersecurity, digital economy, energy, global resource stewardship, health and wellbeing, etcetera. SoftwareX specifically aims to accept submissions representing domain-independent software that may impact more than one research domain.
