Application of Coloured Petri Nets in System Development

  • Chapter
Lectures on Concurrency and Petri Nets (ACPN 2003)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 3098))

Included in the following conference series:

Abstract

Coloured Petri Nets (CP-nets or CPNs) and their supporting computer tools have been used in a wide range of application areas such as communication protocols, software designs, and embedded systems. The practical application of CP-nets has also covered many phases of system development ranging from requirements to design, validation, and implementation. This paper presents four case studies where CP-nets and their supporting computer tools have been used in system development projects with industrial partners. The case studies have been selected such that they illustrate different application areas of CP-nets in various phases of system development.
