Abstract
Petri nets have been widely used as a tool for modeling and analyzing concurrent and distributed system for many years; however their applications are mainly limited to the earlier activities of software system development. To make Petri nets a fully fledged software development methodology, systematic (eventually automatic) code generation techniques are needed. In this paper, we present an approach to deriving concurrent program skeletons from Petri nets which establishes a link between Petri nets and object-oriented concurrent programming and forms a foundation for a Petri net based transformational software development methodology. We demonstrate our code derivation approach with several examples.
