Abstract

This paper presents KRON (Knowledge Representation Oriented Nets), a knowledge representation schema for discrete event systems (DESs). KRON enables the representation and use of a variety of knowledge about a DES static structure, and its dynamic states and behavior. It is based on the integration of Colored Petri nets with frame based representation techniques and follows the object oriented paradigm. The main objective considered in its definition is to obtain a comprehensive and powerful representation model for data and control, and to incorporate a powerful modeling methodology. The communication model used in KRON is close to the generative communication model, which supposes an alternative to message passing. The inferences delivered from the DES behavioral knowledge are governed by a control mechanism based on a rule inference engine.
