Petri Nets and Bisimulations

Abstract

Several categorical relationships (adjunctions) between models for concurrency
have been established, allowing the translation of concepts and
properties from one model to another. A central example is a coreflection
between Petri nets and asynchronous transition systems. The purpose of
the present paper is to illustrate the use of such relationships by transferring
to Petri nets a general concept of bisimulation.
