A Language for the Description of Concurrent Systems Modeled by Colored Petri Nets: Application to the Control of Flexible Manufacturing Systems

  • Chapter
Book cover Languages for Automation

Part of the book series: Management and Information Systems ((MIS))

Abstract

The writing of software for the control of medium- and large-scale concurrent systems is quite a complex task. To facilitate this it is convenient to have languages which permit a description of these control systems based on easily constructed models.
