Concurrency and hardware design: advances in petri nets - 2549

This LNCS State-of-the-Art Survey is devoted to the relatively old and well-known behavioral paradigm in computing, concurrency, and to the ways in which concurrency is exhibited or can be exploited in digital hardware devices.The nine chapters presented are organized in four parts on formal methods, asynchronous circuits, embedded systems design, and timed verification and performance analysis.
