Abstract
This paper is an introduction to the so-called stochastic Petri nets. It contains a critical overview of the most representative stochastic Petri net classes (Stochastic Petri Nets, both in Florin-Natkin and in Molloy form, Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets, Extended Stochastic Petri Nets). Their application to performance evaluation is discussed. A bibliograhy for furthering the subject is given in the appendix.
