Abstract
Large-scale manufacturing systems involve hardware and software that are highly interconnected and complex. Unexpected failures in these systems can cause material damages and can risk human lives too. The definite way of avoiding unexpected failures is to make a model of the system and to perform model verification and validation on it. Petri nets are a highly effective way of modelling discrete-event systems. Model checking is the terminology that is used for model verification on Petri Nets. General-purpose Petri Net Simulator (GPenSIM) is a tool for modelling, simulation, performance evaluation, and control of discrete-event systems (GPenSIM: a general purpose Petri net simulator, http://www.davidrajuh.net/gpensim, 2019, [15]). GPenSIM is developed by one of the authors of this chapter. This chapter explores the potentials of incorporating the model checking functions to GPenSIM. In this chapter, the problem of model checking is presented. The chapter introduces Activity-Oriented Petri Nets (AOPN) and GPenSIM for model checking of cyclic production systems.
