REDUCED GENERALIZED NETS WITH CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PLACES

Generalized Nets with Characteristics of the Places (GNCP) are conservative extensions of the ordinary Generalized Nets (GNs). In the present paper, for the first time algorithm for transition functioning in GNCP is proposed. Some possible applications of GNCP are discussed. It is shown how GNCP can be used for evaluation of the places and to simplify the graphical structure of the net. In analogy with the concept of reduced GNs, reduced GNCP are introduced. It is proved that there exist two minimal reduced GNCP — one with characteristics of the places and one in which only the tokens obtain characteristics. An example of a reduced GNCP that describes the work of a fire company is presented.
