Research Abstract |
In advance of the start of this research project, the author and his coworkers had defined the following condition/event net (C/E net) construction problem : given a partial language over a set of events as specification, construct a C/E net whose activity coincides with the specification. A variant of this is the problem to construct a C/E net which meets the specification using auxiliary events if necessary. The former and the latter problem will be called auxiliary-event-free and auxiliary-event-introduced problem, respectively. The author and his coworkers studied these problems and obtained several results including the fact that every solution of auxiliary-event-free problem consists of atoms 'compatible' with the specification. Under these backgrounds the followings were obtained in this research project. 1. An algorithm for finding all atoms compatible with a given partial language was developed. 2. A method of finding the set of all solutions of auxiliary-event-free C/E net construction problem was proposed. 3. A Petri net construction problem was defined as a generalization of auxiliary-event-introduced C/E net construction problem and its solvability was discussed. 4. A new concept, hierarchical specification, was introduced for both auxiliary-event-free and auxiliary-event-introduced C/E net construction problems. It was shown that the concept permits stepwise refinement of construction processes. 5. A method to solve auxiliary-event-introduced construction problems with finite specification was presented. A method for the same type of problems with periodical specification was also obtained.
