Extensions and Restrictions ⇒ Boundedness Lionel Morel Spring 2006 48

  34. Boudedness - Definition April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions A place p ∈ P in a Petri net N = ( P , T , A , w , � x 0 ) is k-bounded Petri Nets Inputs and if: Outputs Petri Nets vs FSM ∀ y ∈ R ( � x 0 ) : y ( p ) ≤ k . Modeling Templates The Petri net is called k-bounded if all places p ∈ P are Analysis Methods for k-bounded . Petri Nets Extensions and Restrictions Lionel Morel Spring 2006 49

  46. Liveness - Example April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions Petri Nets Inputs and Outputs Petri Nets vs FSM t 0 is dead (L0-live) Modeling Templates Analysis Methods for Petri Nets Extensions and Restrictions Lionel Morel Spring 2006 61

  47. Liveness April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions L1-live : A transition t is live at level 1 in state x if it is Petri Nets Inputs and potentially fire-able, i.e. if there exists a y ∈ R ( x ) such that Outputs t is enabled in y . Petri Nets vs FSM Modeling A transition is L1-live if there exists at least one state Templates configuration in which it can be fired Analysis Methods for Petri Nets Extensions and Restrictions Lionel Morel Spring 2006 62

  48. Liveness - Example April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions Petri Nets Inputs and Outputs Petri Nets vs FSM t 1 is L1-live Modeling Templates Analysis Methods for Petri Nets Extensions and Restrictions Lionel Morel Spring 2006 63

  49. Liveness April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions L2-live : A transition t is live at level 2 in state x if for every Petri Nets Inputs and integer n there exists a firing sequence in which t occurs at Outputs Petri Nets vs least n times. FSM Modeling A transition is L2-live if it can potentially fire repeatidly for any Templates number of time Analysis Methods for Petri Nets Extensions and Restrictions Lionel Morel Spring 2006 64

  51. Liveness April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions Petri Nets L3-live : A transition t is live at level 3 in state x if there is an Inputs and Outputs infinite firing sequence in which t occurs infinitely often.

  56. Reachability and Coverability April 5, 2006 Many other problems (including deadlock avoidance) can Lionel Morel be viewed as a special case of the state reachability Introduction problem. Definitions This asks if a particular state can be reached from a given Petri Nets Inputs and state. Outputs Petri Nets vs i.e., given a state � x , is a state � y ∈ R ( � x ). FSM Modeling If one can answer this question for any � x and � y , then one Templates can also answer for all questions about boundedness, Analysis Methods for conservation, deadlock and liveness. Petri Nets Extensions Unfortunattely, we do not have an efficient method to and answer this question for PN with infinite state space. Restrictions Fortunatelly, we can still solve some of these problems by analyzing a weaker property: Coverability! Lionel Morel Spring 2006 71

  57. Coverability April 5, 2006 N = ( P , T , A , w , � x 0 ) is a Petri net; � x and � y are arbitrary states; Lionel Morel State � x covers state � y if all transitions enabled in � y are also enabled in � Introduction x : Definitions Petri Nets x ( p ) ≥ y ( p ) ∀ p ∈ P . Inputs and Outputs Petri Nets vs State � x strictly covers state � y if � x covers � y and, in addition, FSM Modeling Templates ∃ p ∈ P : x ( p ) > y ( p ) .

A state � y is coverable by � x iff there exists a Petri Nets x ′ ∈ R ( � x ) such that x ′ ( p ) ≥ y ( p ) for all p ∈ P . state � Extensions and Restrictions From a given state � x 0 , can we reach a state that ”covers” a state � y ? Lionel Morel Spring 2006 72

  58. Coverability - Example April 5, 2006 y 0 = [1 , 0 , 1 , 0 , 0] : � Lionel Morel state with minimal number of tokens Introduction required to enable Definitions Petri Nets t 0 Inputs and Outputs y 1 = [0 , 0 , 1 , 1 , 0] : � Petri Nets vs FSM same for t 2 Modeling Templates Analysis y 1 is coverable by � � x 0 (we can reach it from � x 0 Methods for Petri Nets � y 0 is not Extensions and ⇒ t 0 is dead while t 2 is at least L1-live Restrictions The question whether a transition is dead or L1-live can be formulated as a coverability problem! Lionel Morel Spring 2006 73

  59. Coverability vs. Reachability April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Coverability is weaker than reachability: Definitions Petri Nets Coverability = can we reach one state of an infinite set Inputs and Outputs that share a common property Petri Nets vs FSM Reachability = can we reach one specific state Modeling Templates But still, coverability can solve a great deal of the most Analysis Methods for common problems ! Petri Nets Extensions and Restrictions Lionel Morel Spring 2006 74

  60. Persistence April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Understanding of the impact of one activity on another Definitions Petri Nets activity is of particular interest Inputs and Outputs Eg: can the occurence of an interrupt cause some tasks to Petri Nets vs FSM miss their deadline? Modeling Templates Analysis ⇒ Persistence captures some aspects of the relationship Methods for Petri Nets between transitions. Extensions and Restrictions Lionel Morel Spring 2006 75

  61. Persistence - Definition April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions Petri Nets Two transitions are persistent with respect to each other if, Inputs and Outputs when both are enabled the firing of one does not disable the Petri Nets vs other . FSM Modeling A Petri net is persistent if any two transitions are persistent Templates with respect to each other.

  62. Persistence - Example April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions Petri Nets Inputs and Outputs Petri Nets vs FSM Modeling Templates Analysis Methods for Petri Nets Extensions and This is not persistent because, if both t 1 and t 3 are enabled, Restrictions the firing of t 3 will disable t 1 . But t 2 and t 3 are persistent with each other. Lionel Morel Spring 2006 77

Outputs Petri Nets vs The root node of the tree is � x 0 . FSM A terminal node is an w -enhanced state in which no transition Modeling Templates is enabled. Analysis A duplicate node is an w -enhanced state which already exists Methods for Petri Nets somewhere else in the coverability tree.

  78. Limitations ? April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions Sometimes, it can however help solve deadlock, liveness or Petri Nets Inputs and reachability problems: Outputs Petri Nets vs If a state without an ω symbol is in the coverability tree it FSM is also reachable Modeling Templates Conversely, if a state cannot be covered, then it cannot be Analysis reached !

  80. Extensions and Restrictions April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel PN represent a compromise between expressive power and Introduction decision power Definitions Petri Nets Inputs and ↑ Expressive power means that more situations can be Outputs formulated and expressed Petri Nets vs FSM ↑ Decision power means that more problems can be Modeling Templates decided effectively Analysis It has been shown that PN are not as expressive as Turing Methods for Petri Nets machines (because they cannot model test for the Extensions and emptiness of a place) Restrictions Lionel Morel Spring 2006 95

Example: a shared channel April 5, 2006 P 1 P 2 Lionel Morel Introduction B 1 B 2 Definitions Petri Nets Inputs and Outputs Petri Nets vs FSM Modeling C 2 C 1 Templates Analysis Methods for two pairs of consumer/producer Petri Nets Extensions communicate through a shared channel and Restrictions P 1 / C 1 has a higher priority ⇒ communication from B 2 to C 2 takes place only when B 1 is empty Lionel Morel Spring 2006 96

  82. Possible extensions April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Definitions Petri Nets PN can be extended so as to solve the empty place problem: Inputs and Outputs Inhibitor arcs Petri Nets vs FSM timed-PN Modeling Templates colored-PN Analysis Methods for Petri Nets Extensions and Restrictions Lionel Morel Spring 2006 97

  83. Extension: inhibitor arcs April 5, 2006 Lionel Morel Introduction Inhibitor arc: inhibits a transition when there is a token in Definitions Petri Nets its input place Inputs and Outputs Some of the places are considered to be inhibitor places in Petri Nets vs FSM the system Modeling Templates A transition is then enabled when there are tokens in its Analysis normal input places and there are zero tokens in all its Methods for Petri Nets inhibitor input places.
