Abstract

This paper addresses the problem of the representation of time in interactive software models. We aim at providing solutions allowing the software designers to efficiently use time modelling during the design process, and to check that the software being built actually corresponds to the temporal requirements. The modelling approach makes a precise distinction between qualitative and quantitative time modelling. The qualitative aspects are presented according to basic constructs of Petri nets while quantitative aspects are introduced according to several extensions to the basic constructs of Petri nets. Each of those constructs is presented on a simple example.
