Title
Refinement of Petri nets in workflow integration
Abstract
The current refinement of Petri nets is used mainly as a top down approach for supporting hierarchical Petri net models. In this paper, it is stepped further as a tool for modeling and verifying workflow integration. First, a series of concepts are defined for formalizing the refinement of workflow net. Then the structure, language and dynamical properties preservation of the refinement are studied. These work proves that a reliable refined workflow net preserves not only properties such as soundness, but also dynamical behavior. Moreover, the net language of the refined net can be resolved by the language of the original net and subnets, which can reduce complexity of model analysis. Finally, the results are successfully applied to design, modeling and verification of workflow integration in Shanghai Traffic Information Service Application Grid.
