Abstract

The sequential calculus SFM (acronym of Sequential Finite-state Machines) is equipped with an operational LTS semantics and an operational Petri net semantics; we observe that the two semantics are essentially isomorphic. We prove that all and only the sequential finite-state machines are the models of the Petri net semantics for SFM. Moreover, a denotational net semantics is presented and proved to be the same as the operational net semantics.
