TLDR
This work presents a formal design for the system protocols of back-end storage networks that relies on predicate-transition nets (PrT-nets), which actually represent an extension of Petri nets and can provide reasonable means for precise modeling of complex systems.

A generalized stochastic high-level Petri net model for performance analysis

TL;DR: A generalized stochastic high-level Petri net (GSHLPN) model for evaluating the performance of parallel/distributed systems, and the size of the reachable state space is reduced by combining the GSHLPN model with the compound marking technique (CMT).

The notions of consistency and predicate locks in a database system

TL;DR: It is argued that a transaction needs to lock a logical rather than a physical subset of the database, and an implementation of predicate locks which satisfies the consistency condition is suggested.

Recoverability of Communication Protocols--Implications of a Theoretical Study

TL;DR: The time-Petri net (TPN) appears to be a suitable model for the study of practical recoverable processes and several practical communication protocols are formally designed and analyzed using this new model.

Performance evaluation of asynchronous concurrent systems using Petri nets

TL;DR: An extended timed Petri net model is used to model clearly the synchronization involved in these systems, and it is found that the computational complexity involved increases in the same order as they are listed above.

Performance Evaluation of Asynchronous Concurrent Systems Using Petri Nets

TL;DR: In this article, an extended timed Petri net model is used to model the synchronization involved in real-time asynchronous concurrent systems, and procedures for predicting and verifying the system performance are presented.

Formal Methods in Communication Protocol Design

TL;DR: This paper surveys the formal methods being applied to the problems of protocol specification, verification, and implementation, including state transition models, program verification, symbolic execution, and design rules.
