A universal deterministic inhibitor Petri net with 14 places, 29 transitions and 138 arcs was constructed via simulation of Neary and Woods' weakly universal Turing machine with 2 states and 4 symbols; the total time complexity is…
The time complexity of the presented in 2013 by the author small universal Petri nets with the pairs of places/transitions numbers (14,42) and (14,29) was estimated as exponential. In the present paper, it is shown, that their slight…
We investigate the decidability of termination, reachability, coverability and deadlock-freeness of Petri nets endowed with a hierarchy on places, and with inhibitor arcs, reset arcs and transfer arcs that respect this hierarchy. We also…
In this paper we deal with additional control structures for decorated PT Nets. The main contribution are inhibitor arcs and priorities. The first ensure that a marking can inhibit the firing of a transition. Inhibitor arcs force that the…
In Petri net synthesis we ask whether a given transition system $A$ can be implemented by a Petri net $N$. Depending on the level of accuracy, there are three ways how $N$ can implement $A$: an embedding, the least accurate implementation,…
In a previous paper we introduced immediate observation Petri nets, a subclass of Petri nets with application domains in distributed protocols (population protocols) and theoretical chemistry (chemical reaction networks). IO nets enjoy many…
Our objective is to design a controlled system with a simple method for discrete event systems based on Petri nets. It is possible to construct the Petri net model of a system and the specification separately. By synchronous composition of…
We propose a method to count the number of reachable markings of a Petri net without having to enumerate these rst. The method relies on a structural reduction system that reduces the number of places and transitions of the net in such a…
We associate a graph with a 1-safe Petri net and study the parameterized complexity of various problems with parameters derived from the graph. With treewidth as the parameter, we give W[1]-hardness results for many problems about 1-safe…
While there have been lots of work studying frequent subgraph mining, very rare publications have discussed frequent subnet mining from more complicated data structures such as Petri nets. This paper studies frequent subnets mining from a…
Petri nets and their variants are often considered through their interleaved semantics, i.e. considering executions where, at each step, a single transition fires. This is clearly a miss, as Petri nets are a true concurrency model. This…
We introduce immediate observation Petri nets, a class of interest in the study of population protocols (a model of distributed computation), and enzymatic chemical networks. In these areas, relevant analysis questions translate into…
The coverability and boundedness problems for Petri nets are known to be Expspace-complete. Given a Petri net, we associate a graph with it. With the vertex cover number k of this graph and the maximum arc weight W as parameters, we show…
This article focuses on comparing the notions of home spaces and invariants, in Transition Systems and more particularly, in Petri Nets as well as a variety of derived Petri Nets. After recalling basic notions of Petri Nets and semiflows,…
New subclasses of Petri nets - Petri nets receptors and Petri nets effectors are introduced. The introduction/exclusion of such substructures in the main Petri net may be fulfilled in accordance with the Fusion/Defusion principles. We…
We consider timed Petri nets, i.e., unbounded Petri nets where each token carries a real-valued clock. Transition arcs are labeled with time intervals, which specify constraints on the ages of tokens. Our cost model assigns token storage…
Hierarchical Petri nets allow a more abstract view and reconfigurable Petri nets model dynamic structural adaptation. In this contribution we present the combination of reconfigurable Petri nets and hierarchical Petri nets yielding…
The place invariant method is well known as an elegant way to construct a Petri net controller. It is possible to use the constraint for preventing forbidden states. But in general case, the number forbidden states can be very large giving…
A new formalism of Petri nets, based on the adoption of the "position-arc-transition" triad and "transition-arc-position" triad as structure-forming units is introduced. In accordance with the Fusion principle, an analytical representation…
Petri net synthesis consists in deciding for a given transition system $A$ whether there exists a Petri net $N$ whose reachability graph is isomorphic to $A$. Several works examined the synthesis of Petri net subclasses that restrict, for…
