Abstract :
Proposes a transformation method for the simplification of timed Petri nets to estimate the response time. A complicated time Petri net which is live and safe is transformed into a simpler one with a smaller state space by hierarchically replacing a convertible subnet with the corresponding decision net. It is shown that the information for the response time analysis is not lost but is kept during the transformation. An illustrative example is given.
