Abstract. This paper gives algebraic definitions for obtaining the minimal transition and place flows of a modular Petri net from the minimal transition and place flows of its comp...
We extend qualitative reasoning with estimations of the relative likelihoods of the pos sible qualitative behaviors . We estimate the likelihoods by viewing the dynamics o f a sys...
Distributed robot control systems consist of mechanical systems powered by actuators that are under the control of computer systems that rely on sensor input, such as vision, touc...
—We consider timed Petri nets, i.e., unbounded Petri nets where each token carries a real-valued clock. Transition arcs are labeled with time intervals, which specify constraints...
