Abstract

A subclass of Petri nets called live and safe free choice nets (LSFC nets) is studied. LSFC nets model distributed systems that can exhibit both nonsequential and nondeterministic behaviours. It is shown that the restricted combination of concurrency and choice as represented by LSFC nets leads to a number of attractive system properties. It is also shown, through examples, that a "less" restrictive combination of concurrency and choice destroys these properties.
