Abstract

Path-automatic specifications are rational presentations of sets of finite or infinite graphs. A specification is made of a regular set of paths and rational relations on this set. Each action is specified by two relations that define, respectively, when it may, or must occur. Two other relations tell which pairs of paths may not, or must be confluent. We show that it is decidable whether some model of a path-automatic specification may be realized by some finite Petri net with transitions in bijection with the specified actions.
