This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 33rd International Conference on Applications and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency, PETRI NETS 2012, held in Hamburg, Germany, in June 2012. The 18 regular papers and 3 tool papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. The book also contains 2 invited talks. All current issues on research and development in the area of Petri nets and related models of concurrent systems are addressed.

Application and Theory of Petri Nets

Jörg Desel

These Transactions publish archival papers in the broad area of Petri nets and other models of concurrency, ranging from theoretical work to tool support and industrial applications. ToPNoC issues are published as LNCS volumes, and hence are widely distributed and indexed. This Journal has its own Editorial Board which selects papers based on a rigorous two-stage refereeing process. ToPNoC contains: - Revised versions of a selection of the best papers from workshops and tutorials at the annual Petri net conferences- Special sections/issues within particular subareas (similar to those published in the Advances in Petri Nets series)- Other papers invited for publication in ToPNoC- Papers submitted directly to ToPNoC by their authors The 10th volume of ToPNoC contains revised and extended versions of a selection of the best workshop papers presented at the 35th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency, Petri Nets 2014, and the 14th International Conference on Application of Concurrency to System Design, ACSD 2014. It also contains one paper submitted directly to ToPNoC.The 8 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.

It also contains one paper submitted directly to ToPNoC. The 8 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: biological systems, communication protocols, business processes, distributed systems, and multi-agent systems. Thus, this volume gives a good view of ongoing concurrent systems and Petri nets research.

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.
