Abstract: The authors show that the class of EN-LST (elementary net -- local state transformation) algebras together with morphisms of these algebras (A-mophisms) form a category. The authors introduce a class of morphisms of EN systems (called c-morphisms) and construct the corresponding category of EN systems. The existence of functors between these two categories, which form an equivalence, proves that A-morphisms and c-morphisms capture corresponding relationships between behaviours and systems, respectively.

Keywords: elementary net system; local state transformation algebra; category; (system) behaviour.
