What Should we Teach About Petri Nets?
نویسنده
چکیده
I challenge the traditional choice of topics and the usual style of presentation for introductory courses on Petri nets. For such a course I suggest a number of aspects that usually are not considered fundamental. This includes faithful models, a slight revision of formalisms and terminology, specific techniques to increase the expressive power of Petri net models, aspects derived from distributed runs, and particular mathematics to specify and verify properties of Petri net models.

Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Energy Consumption in S-MAC Protocol Using Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets
One of the features of wireless sensor networks is that the nodes in this network have limited power sources. Therefore, assessment of energy consumption in these networks is very important. What has been common practice has been the use of traditional simulators to evaluate the energy consumption of the nodes in these networks. Simulators often have problems such as fluctuating output values i...
متن کاملSoccer Goalkeeper Task Modeling and Analysis by Petri Nets
In a robotic soccer team, goalkeeper is an important challenging role, which has different characteristics from the other teammates. This paper proposes a new learning-based behavior model for a soccer goalkeeper robot by using Petri nets. The model focuses on modeling and analyzing, both qualitatively and quantitatively, for the goalkeeper role so that we have a model-based knowledge of the ta...
متن کاملA rule-based evaluation of ladder logic diagram and timed petri nets for programmable logic controllers
This paper describes an evaluation through a case study by measuring a rule-based approach, which proposed for ladder logic diagrams and Petri nets. In the beginning, programmable logic controllers were widely designed by ladder logic diagrams. When complexity and functionality of manufacturing systems increases, developing their software is becoming more difficult. Thus, Petri nets as a high l...
متن کاملGame Coloured Petri Nets
This paper introduces the notion of game coloured Petri nets. This allows the modeler to explicitly model what parts of the model comprise the modeled system and what parts are the environment of the modeled system. We give the formal definition of game coloured Petri nets, a means of reachability analysis of this net class, and an application of game coloured Petri nets to automatically genera...
متن کاملTowards a Petri Net Semantics for Membrane Systems
We consider the modelling of the behaviour of membrane systems using Petri nets. First, a systematic, structural, link is established between a basic class of membrane systems and Petri nets. To capture the compartmentisation of membrane systems, localities are proposed as an extension of Petri nets. This leads to a locally maximal concurrency semantics for Petri nets. We indicate how processes...
