“…Most of these extensions are devoted to add object oriented features on top of (coloured) Petri nets (see e.g. [2,3,4,5,6,9,11]): the object structure is represented through a net, and dynamic reconfiguration features are obtained by some mechanism external to the net. There are two main differencies w.r.t our approach: we think that our model lies at a lower level of abstraction, because the object oriented features are not embedded in mobile nets, but they need to be encoded; secondly, our aim is to embody dynamicity in our model, and not to add it by an external structure.…”

Abstract:A model, arising as a combination of the name managing techniques of the 1r-calculus with the natural representation of concurrency and locality of Petri nets, is presented. We exploit the suitability of our model to represent concurrent systems with an evolving structure by means of the Hurried Russian Philosophers case study, an extension of the Dining Philosophers with dynamic reconfiguration features and multiple levels of activity.

Abstract. This work proposes a way to model the structure and behaviour of agents in terms of executable coloured Petri net protocols. Structure and behaviour are not all aspects of agent based computing: agents need a world to live in (mostly divided into platforms), they need a general structure (e.g. including a standard interface for communication) and their own special behaviour. Our approach tackles all three parts in terms of Petri nets. This paper skips the topic of agent platforms and handles the agent structure briefly to introduce a key concept of our work: the graphical modelling of the behaviour of autonomous and adaptive agents. A special kind of coloured Petri nets is being used throughout the work: reference nets. Complex agent behaviour is achieved via dynamic composition of simpler sub-protocols, a task that reference nets are especially well suited for. The inherent concurrency of Petri nets is another point that makes it easy to model agents: multiple threads of control are (nearly) automatically implied in Petri nets.
