Abstract :
Compared with traditional verification method for structural correctness of model based on Petri net graph reduction, The method in text adds reduction methods for the general iterative structure and the adjacent structure. A method for converting the non-freely chosen WF-net model into the freely chosen WF-net model in equivalence is put forward, therefore realizing the verification for all kinds of workflow process model.
