Abstract: In order to solve the problem of system dynamics (SD) simulation and correlation analysis of complex system containing random possesses, the generalized stochastic Petri-net (GSPN) is expanded into the generalized stochastic function Petri-net (GSFPN), and a GSFPN-SD model is proposed by combining GSFPN and SD. The GSFPN-SD model has the following advantages: (1) the process of state evolution is more clear by firing transits; (2) it describes the autonomous dynamic evolution of complex system more realistically as system’s dynamic change is driven by events; (3) transits are fired by tokens' movement, thus the system states can conditionally or unconditionally transit; (4) dynamic simulation and correlation analysis of complicated systems containing some delayed transits possess can be executed. Case studies show that, compared with SD, the GSFPN-SD model has stronger and more comprehensive ability of descripting the simulation and correlation analysis of complex system.
