Liveness and boundedness analysis of Petri net synthesis†
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 September 2014
Abstract
We provide motivation for and then study the synthesis of Petri nets. Synthesis can avoid the state exploration problem by guaranteeing correctness for the Petri net. We propose conditions to be imposed on a synthesis shared pb-type subnet for systems specified in Petri nets that ensure the preservation of the liveness and boundedness structural properties. Specifically, we propose a group of sufficient conditions, or both sufficient and necessary conditions, for liveness preservation and boundedness preservation. Possible applications of this synthesis method are illustrated through an example in the form of a flexible manufacturing system. These results are useful for studying the static and dynamic properties of Petri nets for analysing the properties of large complex systems.
