This paper is concerned with the application of Web services to distributed, cross-organizational business processes. In this scenario, it is crucial to answer the following questi...
We describe a system as a set of communicating concurrent programs. Quasi-static scheduling compiles the concurrent programs into a sequential one. It uses a Petri net as an inter...

Starting from the opinion that the standard firing rule of Petri nets embodies the collective token interpretation of nets rather than their individual token interpretation, I pro...
We present a Petri net semantics for the Business Process Execution Language for Web Services (BPEL). Our semantics covers the standard behaviour of BPEL as well as the exceptional...

Abstract. This paper argues that flatness appears as a central notion in the verification of counter automata. A counter automaton is called flat when its control graph can be ...
This paper focuses on a framework for representing a team plan and its projections on individual agents. The team plan is represented with a coloured Petri net. Using the implicit...
STGs give a formalism for the description of asynchronous circuits based on Petri nets. To overcome the state explosion problem one may encounter during circuit synthesis, a nondet...
Abstract. We study probabilistic safe Petri nets, a probabilistic extension of safe Petri nets interpreted under the true-concurrent semantics. In particular, the likelihood of pro...
Interactions between agents are traditionally specified as interaction protocols using notations such as Petri nets, AUML, or finite state machines. These protocols are a poor ...
This paper presents a formal approach to threat-driven modeling and verification of secure software using aspect-oriented Petri nets. Based on the behavior model of intended funct...
