Abstract

This paper shows Extended Place/transition Net with Attributed Tokens (EPNAT) and a modeling technique using it in order to address the problem of EPN. In software modeling using EPN, objects of which the software consists need to be defined individually as sub-EPN models, even if they have the same behavior. On the other hand, in software modeling using EPNAT, objects that have the same behavior can be integrated into one sub-EPNAT model, and therefore EPNAT models would be smaller than EPN models. EPNAT models are converted to VDM++ specifications, and allow engineers to refine software specifications, create programs and test cases. A prototype tool has been developed to support the modeling technique.
