Javier Esparza / Petri nets , Commutative Context - Free
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper provides a structural characterisation of the reachable markings of Petri nets in which every transition has exactly one input place. As a corollary, the reachability problem for this class is proved to be NP-complete. Further consequences are: the uniform word problem for commutative context-free grammars is NP-complete; weak-bisimilarity is semidecidable for Basic Parallel Processes.

Verification of Graph Transformation Systems with Context-Free Specifications
We introduce an analysis method for graph transformation systems which checks that certain forbidden graphs are not reachable from the start graph. These forbidden graphs are specified by a contextfree graph grammar. The technique is based on the approximation of graph transformation systems by Petri nets and on semilinear sets of markings. Especially we exploit Parikh’s theorem which says that...
متن کاملComplexity Results for 1-safe Nets
We study the complexity of several standard problems for 1-safe Petri nets and some of its subclasses. We prove that reachability, liveness, and deadlock are all PSPACE-complete for 1-safe nets. We also prove that deadlock is NP-complete for free-choice nets and for 1-safe free-choice nets. Finally, we prove that for arbitrary Petri nets, deadlock is equivalent to reachability and liveness.
متن کاملReachability in Live and Safe Free - Choice
The complexity of the reachability problem for live and safe free-choice Petri nets has been open for several years. Several partial results seemed to indicate that the problem is polynomial. We show that this is unlikely: the problem is NP-complete.

متن کاملNegotiations and Petri Nets
Negotiations have recently been introduced as a model of concurrency with multi-party negotiation atoms as primitive. This paper studies the relation between negotiations and Petri nets. In particular, we show that each negotiation can be translated into a 1-safe labelled Petri net with equivalent behaviour. In the general case, this Petri net is exponentially larger than the negotiation. For d...
