This book offers a new Modular Petri Net as a solution to the vast Petri net models. It presents some approaches centering around modules (known as “Petri modules”). The goal of this book is to introduce a methodology in which Petri nets are moved to a new level. In this new level, large Petri net models are made of Petri modules, which are independent and run on different computers. This book also contains the literature study on modular Petri nets and definitions for the newer Petri modules. Also, algorithms for extracting Petri modules, and algorithms for connecting Petri modules, and applications are given in this book. Besides, the ideas and algorithms given in this book are implemented in the software General-purpose Petri Net Simulator (GPenSIM). Hence, with the use of this book the readers/users would be able to know that real-life discrete event systems could be modeled, analyzed, and performance-optimized with GPenSIM.
Modeling Discrete-Event Systems with GPenSIM describes the design and applications of General Purpose Petri Net Simulator (GPenSIM), which is a software tool for modeling, simulation, and performance analysis of discrete-event systems. The brief explains the principles of modelling discrete-event systems, as well as the design and applications of GPenSIM. It is based on the author’s lectures that were given on “modeling, simulation, and performance analysis of discrete event systems”. The brief uses GPenSIM to enable the efficient modeling of complex and large-scale discrete-event systems. GPenSIM, which is based on MATLAB®, is designed to allow easy integration of Petri net models wi...
The massive growth of the Internet has made an enormous amount of infor- tion available to us. However, it is becoming very difficult for users to acquire an - plicable one. Therefore, some techniques such as information filtering have been - troduced to address this issue. Recommender systems filter information that is useful to a user from a large amount of information. Many e-commerce sites use rec- mender systems to filter specific information that users want out of an overload of - formation [2]. For example, Amazon. com is a good example of the success of - commender systems [1]. Over the past several years, a considerable amount of research has been conducted on recommendation systems...
This book offers a practical approach to modeling real-world discrete systems and performing analysis. The theory behind the book is the Colored Petri nets, and the tool used for simulations is general-purpose Petri net simulator (GPenSIM). The theory part is kept to a minimum, and more explanation is given to the GPenSIM functions and how they can be used for modeling, simulation, and performance analysis. Real-world industrial systems possess a large number of resources. Modeling these systems with Petri nets would become a problem as they result in huge Petri net models. This book offers a unique solution to this problem by moving resources away from the Petri net model and treating them as variables in the background. Also, the theory and practice put forward in the book help cost estimation of the systems (e.g., manufacturing subsystems).
This book presents peer-reviewed contributions from the 5th International Conference on Mobile and Wireless Technology (ICMWT 2018), held June 25-27, 2018 in Hong Kong. This conference provided researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry with a platform to keep them abreast of cutting-edge developments in the field. The book includes papers on mobile and wireless networks and their applications, the increasingly important security issues relating to mobile and wireless systems, data management, as well as the latest developments in mobile software development, and multimedia and wireless communications.
