The firing rule of Petri nets relies on a residuation operation for the commutative monoid of natural numbers. We identify a class of residuated commutative monoids, called Petri ...
We show how the branching process approach can be used for the detection of illegal behaviors. Our study is based on the specification of properties in terms of testers that cover...
We propose a framework where behavioural properties of finite-state systems modelled as graph transformation systems can be expressed and verified. The technique is based on the ...
Object Petri nets (OPNs) provide a natural and modular method for modelling many real-world systems. We give a structure-preserving translation of OPNs to Prolog by encoding the O...
Unfoldings are a technique for verification of concurrent and distributed systems introduced by McMillan. The method constructs a finite complete prefix, which can be seen as a sym...
