Petri nets are widely used in modeling, analysis, and control of discrete event systems
arising from manufacturing, transportation, computer and communication networks, and web …

Over the past two decades, research in the theory of Petri nets and the development of
graphical tools has yielded a powerful methodology. The contributions in Petri Nets in …

This paper presents a Petri net approach to modeling, analysis, simulation, scheduling, and
control of semiconductor manufacturing systems. These systems can be characterized as …

Over the last two decades, a great deal of research has been focused on solving deadlock
problems in resource allocation systems such as computer communication systems …

Petri Net Synthesis for Discrete Event Control of Manufacturing Systems develops two
essential resource-sharing concepts: parallel and sequential mutual exclusions and …

Petri nets were introduced in 1962 by Dr. Carl Adam Petri (Petri 1962). Petri nets are a
powerful modeling formalism in computer science, system engineering and many other …

Deadlock-free operations of automated manufacturing systems (AMS) are essential for high
machine utilization and productivity. Based on the resource-oriented Petri net models of …

Deadlocks are a rather undesirable situation in a highly automated flexible manufacturing
system. Their occurrences often deteriorate the utilization of resources and may lead to …

Modeling is essential to ensure the orderly design, implementation, and control of
automated and Computer Integrated Manufacturing systems. The complex interactions …

Deadlock problems in flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) have received more and more
attention in the last two decades. Petri nets are one of the more promising mathematical …
