Abstract :
A CAD system for automatic behavioural synthesis of synchronous parallel controllers from their Petri net specifications is presented. The system operates on an unfolded Petri net´s model of a controller which is called an occurrence net. Having the net unfolded, a set of sequential components of the Petri net is identified, and a state assignment is performed with which the controller can be synthesized. The experimental results show that the method presented in this paper is significantly faster then previous methods
