Package: sbioPN Version: 1.1.0 Date: 2014-03-15 Title: sbioPN: Simulation of deterministic and stochastic spatial biochemical reaction networks using Petri Nets Author: Roberto Bertolusso and Marek Kimmel Maintainer: Roberto Bertolusso Description: sbioPN is a package suited to perform simulation of deterministic and stochastic systems of biochemical reaction networks with spatial effects. Models are defined using a subset of Petri Nets, in a way that is close at how chemical reactions are defined. For deterministic solutions, sbioPN creates the associated system of differential equations "on the fly", and solves it with a Runge Kutta Dormand Prince 45 explicit algorithm. For stochastic solutions, sbioPN offers two variants of Gillespie algorithm, or SSA. For hybrid deterministic/stochastic, it employs the Haseltine and Rawlings algorithm, that partitions the system in fast and slow reactions. sbioPN algorithms are developed in C to achieve adequate performance.
