Generalized Nets Modelling of Biotechnological Processes

Cover of the book

Generalized Nets Modelling of Biotechnological Processes is a book by Anthony Shannon, Olympia Roeva, Tania Pencheva and Krassimir Atanassov, published in 2004 by "Prof. Marin Drinov" Publishing house of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, under ISBN 954-322-039-5.

The purpose of this book is to apply the innovative alternative approach of generalized nets to modelling of biotechnological processes. As a result, various decisions can be made in general about the optimal implementation of the processes within the meaning of technological time and about the quality of products.
