High-level Petri nets are now widely used in both theoretical
analysis and practical modelling of concurrent systems. The main
reason for the success of this class of net models is that they
make it possible to obtain much more succinct and manageable de
scriptions than can be obtained by means of low-level Petri
nets-while, on the other hand, they still offer a wide range of
analysis methods and tools. The step from low-level nets to
high-level nets can be compared to the step from assembly languages
to modem programming languages with an elaborated type concept. In
low-level nets there is only one kind of token and this means that
the state of a place is described by an integer (and in many cases
even by a boolean value). In high-level nets each token can carry
complex information which, e. g., may describe the entire state of
a process or a data base. Today most practical applications of
Petri nets use one of the different kinds of high-level nets. A
considerable body of knowledge exists about high-level Petri nets
this includes theoretical foundations, analysis methods and many
applications. Unfortunately, the papers on high-level Petri nets
have been scattered throughout various journals and collections. As
a result, much of this knowledge is not readily available to people
who may be interested in using high-level nets."
