This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies, Ada-Europe 2008, held in Venice, Italy, in June 2008. The 20 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The conference proceedings published in this volume cover topics ranging from formal verification to real-time systems via concurrency, embedded systems, language technologies, model-driven engineering and applications of Petri Nets.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 37th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency, PETRI NETS 2016, held in Toruń, Poland, in June 2016. Petri Nets 2016 was co-located with the Application of Concurrency to System Design Conference, ACSD 2016. The 16 papers including 3 tool papers with 4 invited talks presented together in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions. Papers presenting original research on application or theory of Petri nets, as well as contributions addressing topics relevant to the general field of distributed and concurrent systems are presented within this volume.

Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency

Maciej Koutny

The 16th volume of ToPNoC contains revised and extended versions of a selection of the best workshop and tutorial papers presented at the 41st International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency, Petri Nets 2020, and the 20th International Conference on Application of Concurrency to System Design, ACSD 2020. The papers cover a diverse range of topics including model checking and system verification, refinement and synthesis; foundational work on specific classes of Petri nets; and innovative applications of Petri nets and other models of concurrency. Application areas covered in this volume are: process mining, verification, formal semantics, distributed simulations, business processes, distributed systems, and net synthesis. Thus, this volume gives a good overview of ongoing research on concurrent systems and Petri nets.

Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems

th The 13 edition of the International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies (Ada-Europe 2008) marked its arrival in Italy by selecting the splendid venue of Venice. It did so after having been hosted twice in Switzerland, Spain and the UK (Montreux for its inauguration in 1996 and Geneva in 2007; Santander in 1999 and Palma de Mallorca in 2004; London in 1997 and York in 2005), and having visited Sweden (Uppsala, 1998), Germany (Potsdam, 2000), Belgium (Leuven, 2001), Austria (Vienna, 2002), France (Toulouse, 2003) and Portugal (Porto, 2006). It was certainly high time that the conference came to Italy! The conference series, which is run and sponsored by Ada-Europe, chooses its yearly venue following two driving criteria: to celebrate the activity of one of its national member societies in a particular country, and/or to facilitate the formation, or the growth, of a national community around all aspects of reliable software technologies. The success of this year’s conference, beside the richness of its technical and social program, will thus be measured by its lasting effects. We can only hope that the latter will be as good and vast as the former! Owing to the absence of a national society associated with Ada-Europe in Italy, the organization of the conference was technically sustained by selected members of the Board of Ada-Europe, its governing body, with some invaluable local support.

The 15th volume of ToPNoC contains revised and extended versions of a selection of the best workshop and tutorial papers presented at the 40th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency, Petri Nets 2019, and the 19th International Conference on Application of Concurrency to System Design, ACSD 2019. The papers cover a diverse range of topics including model checking and system verification, refinement and synthesis; foundational work on specific classes of Petri nets; and innovative applications of Petri nets and other models of concurrency. Application areas covered in this volume are: process mining, verification, formal semantics, communication protocols, business processes, distributed systems, and net synthesis. Thus, this volume gives a good overview of ongoing research on concurrent systems and Petri nets.

In today’s digital environment, distributed systems areincreasingly present in a wide variety of environments, rangingfrom public software applications to critical systems. Distributed Systems introduces the underlying concepts, theassociated design techniques and the related security issues. Distributed Systems: Design and Algorithms, is dedicated toengineers, students, and anyone familiar with algorithms andprogramming, who want to know more about distributed systems. These systems are characterized by: several components with one ormore threads, possibly running on different processors;asynchronous communications with possible additional assumptions(reliability, order preserving, etc.); local views for everycomponent and no shared data between components. This titlepresents distributed systems from a point of view dedicated totheir design and their main principles: the main algorithms aredescribed and placed in their application context, i.e. consistencymanagement and the way they are used in distributed file-systems.
