Workshops and Tutorials

The conference takes place from Wednesday to Friday. The days before the conference also offer a wide range of activities.

The Petri Net Course takes place from Sunday to Tuesday. It offers a thorough introduction to Petri Nets and consists of four parts: Basic Net Classes, Coloured Petri Nets, Timed and Stochastic Petri Nets, and Applications of Petri Nets. If all four parts are followed, 3 ECTS credit points can be awarded to a participant. For further information please contact Jetty Kleijn (spam-protected email address) or Jörg Desel (spam-protected email address).

The Workshops and Advanced Tutorials take place on Monday and Tuesday. A detailed description of the tutorials and workshops will be available via the conference web pages.

History of the Conference

The aim of the conference is to create a forum for discussing progress in the application and theory of Petri nets. Typically, the conferences have 100–150 participants - some of these coming from industry, the rest from universities and research institutions. The conference takes place in the last week of June. The proceedings are published by Springer-Verlag as Lecture Notes in Computer Science (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/).

Other Major Activities of the Petri Net Community

Petri Net Newsletter

The newsletter is published twice a year by the Special Interest Group on Petri Nets and Related System Models of the Gesellschaft für Informatik. It contains refereed articles, surveys and state-of-the-art reports. Moreover, it contains work-in-progress papers, all kinds of announcements, programs and reports on meetings and activities, information on theses and new books, and abstracts of recent publications.

Further information as well as subscription forms can be obtained from the editor or from the Petri Net Newsletter web site: http://www.informatik.uni-augsburg.de/pnnl/.

Transactions on Petri Nets and Other Models of Concurrency (ToPNoC)

ToPNoC (http://www.springer.com/lncs/topnoc) is published by Springer-Verlag as a journal subline in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). ToPNoC contains: revised versions of some of the best papers from workshops and tutorials at the annual Petri net conferences, special sections/issues within particular subareas (like some of those which have been published as volumes in "Advances in Petri Nets"), and papers submitted directly to ToPNoC by their authors. To get more information about ToPNoC please contact the editor-in-chief:

Advanced Courses on Petri Nets

These courses are organised periodically in order to present the progress in Petri net research and applications. The fifth Advanced Course took place in Rostock, Germany, September 13–24, 2010. Karsten Wolf was course director and head of the local organising committee while Wil van der Aalst, Gianfranco Balbo and Maciej Koutny were scientific directors. More detailed information about the course are available on the web page http://www.petrinet-summerschool.org. Previously there have been Advanced Courses in: Hamburg 1979, Bad Honnef 1986, Dagstuhl 1996 and Eichstätt 2003. The material from the courses is published by Springer-Verlag as Lecture Notes in Computer Science.

Petri Net WWW and Petri Net Mailing

These electronic services are used to disseminate announcements, questions, bibliographies, tool information, addresses, and all other kinds of Petri net related information. The services are maintained by the TGI group at University of Hamburg, Germany. More information can be obtained at the following addresses:
