Modelling and analysis of hybrid stochastic timed Petri net

Abstract

In this paper, an interesting Hybrid Stochastic Timed Petri Net (HSTPN) is proposed for a class of hybrid systems. The proposed HSTPN can be adopted to represent hybrid systems with discrete, continuous, conflicting, time-delay and stochastic characteristics simultaneously. The proposed HSTPN outperforms conventional hybrid Petri net models in terms of describing the scalability and immediacy of hybrid systems. Advantages of the HSTPN on describing hybrid system are verified by establishing some equivalent models of HPN and its derived models.
