During the last 20 years Petri-Nets have attracted more and more attention to help to model and simulate biological networks. To model the identified features of cellular processing it was necessary to extend the basic definition of Petri-Nets. Regarding the published papers, it seems clear that hybrid functional Petri-Nets are the adequate method to model complex biological networks today. Furthermore, different higher Petri-Nets are available to realize the adequate modeling of cellular
