Abstract

Structured occurrence nets (SONs) are a Petri net based formalism for portraying the behaviour of complex evolving systems. The concept extends that of occurrence nets - a formalism that can be used to record causality and concurrency information concerning a single execution of a system. In SONs, multiple occurrence nets are combined by various types of relationships. In particular, relationships are included that enable the representation of dependencies between communicating and evolving sub-systems. In this paper, we introduce a tool for editing, simulating, and analysing SONs. The present version deals with three of the various types of abstractions that have been defined for SONs.
