چکیده

The blackboard approach has been successfully used in a variety of domains. A typical problem-solving cycle consists of deliberation, scheduling, and execution steps. This paper presents a scheduling approach that uses the mathematically well-founded framework of Petri Nets as an environment model to represent the scheduling context. The paper extends the classical Petri Nets model in various ways and shows their decision making and tutoring applications in the test-bed domain of ship damage control. The use of a scheduler based on Extended Petri Nets resulted in 21 of 160 ships being lost in an immersive simulated environment. This is a 46% improvement over subject experts where 39 ships were lost.

Modeling and Scheduling Design for a Class of Queuing Systems by means of timed Petri Nets and Max-Plus Algebra

A queuing system, is a dynamical system whose state evolves in time by the occurrence of events at possibly irregular time intervals. Placetransitions Petri nets (commonly called Petri nets) are a graphical and mathematical modeling tool applicable to queuing systems in order to represent its states evolution. Timed Petri nets are an extension of Petri nets, where now the timing at which the st...

Using Interval Petri Nets and Timed Automata for Diagnosis of Discrete Event Systems (DES)

A discrete event system (DES) is a dynamic system that evolves in accordance with the abrupt occurrence, at possibly unknown irregular intervals, of physical events. Because of the special nature of these systems, different tools are currently used for their analysis, design and modeling. The main focus of this paper is the presentation of a new modeling approach of Discrete Event Systems. The ...

Modeling of Continuous Systems Using Modified Petri Nets

Due to the changes which may occur in their parameters, systems are usually demonstrated by some subsystems for different conditions. This paper employs Modified Petri Nets (MPN) to model theses subsystems and makes it simple to analyze them. In this method, first, the continuous transfer function is converted to a discrete transfer function and then, by MPN, system is modeled and analyzed. All...
