TL;DR: This paper proposes four complexity measures for genes in ciliates, based on the 'effort' required to assemble the gene, which consider the types of operations used in the assembly, the number and length of molecular folds involved, and the length of the shortest possible parallel assembly for that gene.
Abstract: The process of gene assembly in ciliates is a fascinating example of programmed DNA manipulations in living cells. Macronuclear genes are split into coding blocks (called MDSs), shuffled and separated by non-coding sequences to form micronuclear genes. Assembling the coding blocks from micronuclear genes to form functional macronuclear genes is facilitated by an impressive in-vivo implementation of the linked list data structure of computer science. Complexity measures for genes may be defined in many ways, including the number of MDSs, the number of loci, etc. We take a different approach in this paper and propose four complexity measures for genes in ciliates, based on the 'effort' required to assemble the gene. We consider: (a) the types of operations used in the assembly, (b) the number of operations used in the assembly, (c) the length of the molecular folds involved, and (d) the length of the shortest possible parallel assembly for that gene. "One of the oldest forms of life on Earth has been revealed as a natural born computer programmer."

TL;DR: The author proceeds with introductory modeling examples, behavioral and structural properties, three methods of analysis, subclasses of Petri nets and their analysis, and one section is devoted to marked graphs, the concurrent system model most amenable to analysis.
Abstract: Starts with a brief review of the history and the application areas considered in the literature. The author then proceeds with introductory modeling examples, behavioral and structural properties, three methods of analysis, subclasses of Petri nets and their analysis. In particular, one section is devoted to marked graphs, the concurrent system model most amenable to analysis. Introductory discussions on stochastic nets with their application to performance modeling, and on high-level nets with their application to logic programming, are provided. Also included are recent results on reachability criteria. Suggestions are provided for further reading on many subject areas of Petri nets. >

TL;DR: Alur et al. as discussed by the authors proposed timed automata to model the behavior of real-time systems over time, and showed that the universality problem and the language inclusion problem are solvable only for the deterministic automata: both problems are undecidable (II i-hard) in the non-deterministic case and PSPACE-complete in deterministic case.
