We compare the expressive power of a class of well-structured transition systems that includes relational automata, Petri nets, lossy channel systems, and constrained multiset rewr...

This paper reviews a proposal for the modular analysis of Petri nets and its applicability to factory automation systems. It presents new algorithms to harness this modular analys...
Abstract. We unify a view on three extensions of Process Rewrite Systems (PRS) and compare their expressive power with that of PRS. We show that the class of Petri nets is less exp...
: This paper summarizes how an algebra for mobile systems, the -calculus, can be applied as unified formal foundation to service oriented architectures (SOA). The concepts accounte...
SOFL is a formal language and method for system specification and design. As a language it is an integration of Petri nets, Data Flow Diagrams, and VDM-SL. As a method it is a com...
