Parallel and distributed simulation of free choice Petri Nets
François Baccelli, Nathalie Furmento, Bruno Gaujal · Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Simulation · 1995
In this paper, we present two new methods to simulate Petri Nets: a data parallel simulation and a distributed simulation. Both simulations use an equational representation of the net in the so called (min, +) algebra. The data parallel simulation is based on the use of matrix representation of these equations, and the distributed simulation on the decomposition of a Petri Net into marked graph components.
