Opis

This tutorial volume originates from the 4th Advanced Course on Petri Nets, ACPN 2003, held in Eichstatt, Germany in September 2003.In addition to lectures given at ACPN 2003, additional chapters have been commissioned to give a well-balanced presentation of the state-of-the art in the area. This book will be useful as both a reference for those working in the area as well as a study book for the reader who is interested in an up-to-date overview of research and development in concurrent and distributed systems; of course, readers specifically interested in theoretical or applicational aspects of Petri nets will appreciate the book as well."
