Abstract

Petri net is a potential mathematical and graphical modelling tool, used to examine the properties of various complex discrete event and distributed systems. In this paper, a Petri net variant, called Fuzzy Petri net (FPN) has been used to represent Fuzzy Production propositions of a rule based system, where a fuzzy production proposition explains the fuzzy relation among two propositions. For this purpose, another Petri net variant, known as Boolean Petri net (BPN) is considered because of its practical significance. BPNs can be used to represent active and inactive stages of a system like switching circuits; to qualitatively describe gene regulatory interactions etc. The Fuzzy Production propositions of BPN have been represented using Fuzzy Petri net and a precedent-subsequent relation between the two fuzzy propositions of BPNs has been checked using fuzzified propositional algorithm. This relation provides an important property of BPNs based on initial marking of Petri nets and the obtained truth degree of the success node validates the belief strength of this property.
