Construction of a Petri Net Model of Internal Organs and Meridians

This paper aims to construct a Petri net model of the human body's internal organs and meridians. We firstly build a Petri net model of the internal organs, based on the five-elements theory and traditional Chinese medicine. Then based on the efficacy of acupuncture points, we construct a Petri net model of meridians and acupuncture points. Finally, we construct an Interface that connects the internal organs model and the meridians model. In order to verify the correctness of the whole model, we carry out the simulation of acupuncture and moxibustion treatment for asthma and deafness by using the model.
