Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Processes of Nets with Range Arcs

Abstract

We are concerned with causality semantics in the executions of Petri nets with range arcs. Range arcs combine (and subsume) the distinctive features of inhibitor and activator arcs, and each such arc provides a means of specifying a range (a finite or infinite interval of non-negative integers) for the number of tokens in a place which makes enabling of a given transition possible. We demonstrate that the existing treatment of causality developed for Petri nets with inhibitor arcs based on structures generalising partial orders can also be applied to the nets with range arcs.
