Abstract

The purpose of the present paper is to present possible application of generalized nets with the development of a reduced GN-model as a telemedicine screening tool for COVID-19. The model describes a possible algorithm for remote symptom screening and the different transitions of the model are representing respectively the different criteria of the evaluation process.
