Abstract :
In this paper we present a Petri-net-based approach to consider fault tolerance aspects in a modified control track vehicle system. The proposed approach is based on fuzzy time G-nets which is the integration of two Petri nets extensions: fuzzy time Petri net (timing Petri net extension) and G-nets (Petri net extended with object-oriented concepts). We also show how to model such system by means of fuzzy time G-nets
