In modern society services and support provided by computer-based
systems have become ubiquitous and indeed have started to fund
amentally alter the way people conduct their business. Moreover, it
has become apparent that among the great variety of computer
technologies available to potential users a crucial role will be
played by concurrent systems. The reason is that many commonly
occurring phenomena and computer applications are highly con
current : typical examples include control systems, computer
networks, digital hardware, business computing, and multimedia
systems. Such systems are characterised by ever increasing
complexity, which results when large num bers of concurrently
active components interact. This has been recognised and addressed
within the computing science community. In particular, sev eral
form al models of concurrent systems have been proposed, studied,
and applied in practice. This book brings together two of the most
widely used formalisms for de scribing and analysing concurrent
systems: Petri nets and process algebras. On the one hand , process
algebras allow one to specify and reason about the design of
complex concurrent computing systems by means of algebraic
operators corresponding to common programming constructs. Petri
nets, on the other hand, provide a graphical representation of such
systems and an additional means of verifying their correctness
efficiently, as well as a way of expressing properties related to
causality and concurrency in system be haviour.
