Discrete time stochastic and deterministic Petri box calculus

Abstract

We propose an extension with deterministically timed multiactions of discrete time stochastic and immediate Petri box calculus (dtsiPBC), previously presented by I.V. Tarasyuk, H. Maci\`a and V. Valero. In dtsdPBC, non-negative integers specify multiactions with fixed (including zero) time delays. The step operational semantics is constructed via labeled probabilistic transition systems. The denotational semantics is defined on the basis of a subclass of labeled discrete time stochastic Petri nets with deterministic transitions. The consistency of both semantics is demonstrated. In order to evaluate performance, the corresponding semi-Markov chains and (reduced) discrete time Markov chains are analyzed.
