Coverage visualization and analysis of net inscriptions in coloured Petri net models

Abstract High-level Petri nets such as coloured (CPNs) are characterized by the combination of and a high-level programming language. In CPNs CPN Tools, inscriptions (e.g. arc expressions guards) specified using Standard ML. The application simulation state space exploration for validating models traditionally focuses on behavioural properties related to net structure, i.e. places transitions. This means that only implicitly validated, extent which their sub-expressions have been covered is not made explicit. paper extends our previous work coverage analysis models. particular, we improve Tools library responsible annotating, instrumenting collecting evaluation Boolean conditions determining criteria based model executions. now automates most instrumentation parts were done manually before integrates reports into GUI.
