Abstract

The paper studies and compares two different approaches to model communication and cooperation. The approaches are team automata, a well-defined variant of communicating automata, and state-charts, heavily used in object-oriented modelling methods. The comparison yields interesting insights for modelling communication and cooperation. In particular, the differences between action-based, synchronous and state-based, asynchronous communication are elucidated.

Object oriented modelling with object petri nets
Concurrent object-oriented programming and petri nets

This paper informally introduces Object Petri Nets (OPNs) with a number of examples. OPNs support a thorough integration of object-oriented concepts into Petri Nets, including inheritance and the associated polymorphism and dynamic binding. They have a ...
