Stochastic Petri Nets Simulation Based on Event Scheduling
Daoyu Tang · Acta Simulata Systematica Sinica · 2004
For stochastic Petri nets with generally distributed firing time, they are not isomorphic to continuous time Markov chains, and cannot be computed analytically or numerically, but it can be estimated by means of simulation. This paper focuses on a simulation algorithm based on event scheduling. The software with this algorithm can analyze any stochastic Petri nets almost, for example, general stochastic Petri nets, deterministic and stochastic Petri nets and so on.
