Transforming event graphs to colored Petri nets

The paper explorers a comparison between the two approaches, event graphs and colored Petri nets, in terms of their modeling and simulation capabilities. A methodology for transforming an event graph model of a Discrete Event System (DES) to an equivalent colored Petri net model is presented with an illustration.
