Abstract

We investigate the synthesis problem for the Elementary Net Systems with Inhibitor Arcs (ENI-systems) executed according to the a-priori semantics. We characterise transition systems generated by ENI-systems, called TSENI transition systems, by adapting the notion of a step transition system whose arcs are labelled by sets of concurrently executed events. The relationship between the ENI-systems and TSENI transition systems is established via the notion of a region. We define, and show consistency of, two behaviour preserving translations between nets and transition systems. We also discuss how to optimise the synthesis procedure by using only minimal regions and selected inhibitor arcs.
