Abstract
Starts with a brief review of the history and the application areas considered in the literature. The author then proceeds with introductory modeling examples, behavioral and structural properties, three methods of analysis, subclasses of Petri nets and their analysis. In particular, one section is devoted to marked graphs, the concurrent system model most amenable to analysis. Introductory discussions on stochastic nets with their application to performance modeling, and on high-level nets with their application to logic programming, are provided. Also included are recent results on reachability criteria. Suggestions are provided for further reading on many subject areas of Petri nets. >

A Petri Nets Model for Blockchain Analysis

TL;DR: This paper reconstructed an Entities network associated to Blockchain transactions gathering together Bitcoin addresses into the single entity holding permits to manage Bitcoins held by those addresses by using the Petri Nets formalism.

A Deterministic and Stochastic Petri Net Model for Traffic-Responsive Signaling Control in Urban Areas

TL;DR: The control strategy proposed in this paper aims at minimizing queue lengths by optimizing the duration of each signal phase by heuristically solving a stochastic optimization problem within a receding-horizon scheme.

Checking signal transition graph implementability by symbolic BDD traversal

TL;DR: This paper develops algorithms and presents experimental results of using BDD-traversal for checking STG implementability, and demonstrates efficiency of the symbolic approach and shows a way of improving existing tools for STG-based asynchronous circuit design.

A modeling and analysis methodology for modular logic controllers of machining systems using Petri net formalism

TL;DR: A unified formal representation of logic controllers with three control modes is provided using Petri nets (PNs) and a modular logic controller structure is introduced and formalized for high-volume transfer lines.

Kommunikation mit Automaten

C. A. Petri
TL;DR: The theory of automata is shown not capable of representing the actual physical flow of information in the solution of a recursive problem and a theory of communication is proposed that yields a means of representation that with equal rigor and simplicity accomplishes more than the theory of synchronous automata.

A class of generalized stochastic Petri nets for the performance evaluation of multiprocessor systems

TL;DR: It is shown that GSPN are equivalent to continuous-time stochastic processes, and solution methods for the derivation of the steady state probability distribution are presented.

Performance Analysis Using Stochastic Petri Nets

TL;DR: An isomorphism between the behavior of Petri nets with exponentially distributed transition rates and Markov processes is presented and this work solves for the steady state average message delay and throughput on a communication link when the alternating bit protocol is used for error recovery.

Parallel program schemata

TL;DR: This paper introduces a model called the parallel program schema for the representation and study of programs containing parallel sequencing, related to Ianov's program schema, but extends it, both by modelling memory structure in more detail and by admitting parallel computation.

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.
