  • Abstract
    A well-known sufficient condition for a Petri net to be deadlock-free is that every siphon contains a marked trap. This property is called the marked siphon-trap property and it is also sufficient and necessary for characterizing liveness of some subclasses of Petri nets. This paper shows that deadlock freedom of general Petri nets and liveness of some subclasses of Petri nets can be determined using cycles, meanwhile, the relation between siphons and cycles also is explored forward.
