Abstract

Petri Nets (PN) are a central model for concurrent or distributed systems, but not expressive enough to represent dynamically reconfigurable systems. On the other side, Rewriting Logic has proved to be a natural framework for several formal models of distributed systems. We propose an efficient Maude formalization of dynamically reconfigurable PT nets (with inhibitor arcs), using as a running example a fault-tolerant manufacturing system. We discuss the advantages of such a hybrid approach, as well as some concerns that are raised.
