Independentei 313, 77206 Bucharest, Romania, e-mail: florinantonescu@yahoo.com Keywords: hybrid Petri Nets, software application, modeling, complex systems Abstract The complex systems requires not only new techniques and approaches, such as new models or behavior analysis methodologies but also dedicated software applications. This paper presents a decision support system software application, based on Hybrid Petri Nets modeling, that allows analysis and performance evaluation for different behavioral scenarios. Some of the main capabilities of this software application are: editing, composition, simulation and historical analysis for Hybrid Petri Nets. References [1] Alla, H. and R.
