Abstract. We show how the firing rule of Petri nets relies on a residuation operation for the commutative monoid of natural numbers. On that basis we introduce closed monoidal str...
Model checking by exhaustive state space enumeration is one of the most developed analysis methods for distributed event systems. Its main problem—the size of the state spaces—...
One of the key issues of object-oriented modeling is inheritance. It allows for the definition of a subclass that inherits features from some superclass. When considering the dynam...
The Petri Net Markup Language (PNML) is an XML-based interchange format for Petri nets. In order to support different versions of Petri nets and, in particular, future versions of ...
Abstract. Petri nets are widely used for modeling and analyzing workflows. Using the token-game semantics, Petri net-based workflow models can be analyzed before the model is actua...
