Generalized mutual exclusion contraints on nets with uncontrollable transitions

TLDR
For some classes of nets, the authors prove that generalized mutual exclusion constraints may always be enforced by monitors, even in the presence of uncontrollable transitions.
Abstract
The authors study a class of specifications, called generalized mutual exclusion constraints, for discrete event systems modeled using place/transition nets. These specifications may be easily enforced by a set of places called monitors on a net system where all transitions are controllable. However, when some of the transitions of the net are uncontrollable, this technique is not always applicable. For some classes of nets, the authors prove that generalized mutual exclusion constraints may always be enforced by monitors, even in the presence of uncontrollable transitions. >

A Survey of Petri Net Methods for Controlled Discrete EventSystems

TL;DR: An overview of the various models and problems formulated in the literature focusing on two particular models, the controlled Petri nets and the labeled nets, and two efficient techniques for the on-line computation of the control law.

Deadlock avoidance in sequential resource allocation systems with multiple resource acquisitions and flexible routings

TL;DR: The main purpose of this correspondence is to establish that, contrary to the claims that are made in the paper by D. Y. Chao and S. A. Reveliotis concerning the liveness characterization of the S3PGR2 nets by means of the structural object of deadly marked siphon, the results are correct and complete.

Petri nets: Properties, analysis and applications

TL;DR: The author proceeds with introductory modeling examples, behavioral and structural properties, three methods of analysis, subclasses of Petri nets and their analysis, and one section is devoted to marked graphs, the concurrent system model most amenable to analysis.

The control of discrete event systems

TL;DR: The focus is on the qualitative aspects of control, but computation and the related issue of computational complexity are also considered.

Deadlock avoidance in flexible manufacturing systems with concurrently competing process flows

TL;DR: The authors develop a Petri net model of concurrent job flow and dynamic resource allocation in an FMS and define deadlock in terms of transition enabling in the PN model to prove that restricted deadlock can never occur for any resource allocation policy implemented under the DAA restriction policy.

Deadlock prevention and deadlock avoidance in flexible manufacturing systems using Petri net models

TL;DR: It is shown that prevention and avoidance of FMS deadlocks can be implemented using Petri net models and a generic, Petri-net-based online controller for implementing deadlock avoidance in real-world FMSs is developed.

Synthesis of feedback control logic for a class of controlled Petri nets

TL;DR: It is shown that the graphical representations of the state transition logic in a CMG can be used to synthesize state feedback logic which is maximally permissive while guaranteeing the forbidden states will not occur.
