Abstract

Petri nets provide a means for modelling and verifying the behavior of concurrent systems. Program slicing is a well-known technique in imperative programming for extracting those statements of a program that may affect a given program point. In the context of Petri nets, computing a net slice can be seen as a graph reachability problem. In this paper, we propose two slicing techniques for Petri nets that can be useful to reduce the size of the considered net, thereby simplifying subsequent analysis and debugging tasks by standard Petri net techniques.
