Abstract :
A Fluid Stochastic Petri Net (FSPN) extends a normal Petri net with the notion of fluid places, and fluid arcs. Fluid levels are continuous, and may be used to approximate the presence of many discrete tokens. We describe an FSPN simulation tool whose input description extends the syntax of the widely used tool spnp
