Abstract :
The authors´ knitting technique (1994) has been applied to Petri net (PN) modeling and analysis of manufacturing systems. The advantages of the knitting technique include the possibility of implementation as a CAD tool, the preservation of liveness, boundedness, and reversibility (well-behaved properties), and the close control of concurrency and nondeterminism. Therefore, using the knitting technique, designers can build up a PN model for a complicated system without much difficulty. However, there are some limitations in the knitting technique; we enhance it in this work
