Title
An Extended Petri net for Modeling Workflow with Critical Sections
Abstract
This work presents an extended workflow petri net which synchronizes activity flow in the critical sections of the process. A critical section is a non empty set of tasks that cannot serve more than one activity at a time. The structure of the proposed net is introduced and a theorem is proposed and proved for the properties of separability and serializability. A fully detailed model for the operation theater in a hospital is presented using the proposed theoretical structure to control concurrency between activities in the critical sections.
