Abstract

This paper presents translation rules for mapping from a given dataflow process network (DPN) to a generalized net (GN). The so obtained GN has the same behaviour as the corresponding DPN. A reduced GN that represents the functioning and the results of the work of an arbitrary DPN is also defined.

This work is supported by the National Science Fund Grant DID 02/29 “Modelling of Processes with Fixed Development Rules (ModProFix)”.
