“…A shortcoming of the Petri net is that logical problems such as deadlocks can appear if the net is not appropriately structured, which becomes more difficult to achieve as the complexity of information flows and the number of possible routes increases. Considering these problems, Ha and Suh (2008) develop a set of Petri net templates that each represent a certain pattern of DDP task interactions. Larger models can then be assembled from these templates.…”

Many models of the design and development process have been published over the years, representing it for different purposes and from different points of view. This article contributes an organising framework that clarifies the topology of the literature on these models and thereby relates the main perspectives that have been developed. The main categories of model are introduced. Their contexts, advantages, and limitations are considered through discussion of selected examples. It is demonstrated that the framework integrates coverage of earlier reviews and as such provides a new perspective on the literature. Finally, key characteristics of design and development process models are discussed considering their applications in practice, and opportunities for further research are suggested. Overall, the article should aid researchers in positioning new models and new modelling approaches in relation to state-of-the-art. It may also be of interest to practitioners and educators seeking an overview of developments in this area.

“…To solve this problem they present reactive Petri nets [15]. Other examples of extended Petri nets applied to workflow modeling is the one presented in [17] where Ha et al use timed colored Petri nets (allowing differentiation among tokens and the inclusion of time restriction) to model dynamic product development processes; or the use of hierarchical Petri nets (HPN), where each place substitutes a lower level Petri net, presented by Boualem in [11] or by Alt et al who use HPN to represent grid workflows [9].…”

Nowadays business process management is becoming a fundamental piece in many industrial processes. To manage the evolution and the interactions of the business actions it is important to accurately model the steps to follow and the resources needed by a process. Workflows provide a way of describing the order of execution and the dependencies between the constituting activities of business processes. Workflow monitoring can help to improve and to avoid delays on industrial environments where concurrent processes are carried out.In this article a new Petri net extension for modeling together workflow activities with their required resources is presented: resource-aware Petri nets. Moreover an intelligent workflow management system for process monitoring and delay prediction is introduced.Resource aware Petri nets include time and resources into the classical Petri net workflow representation, facilitating the task of modeling and monitoring workflows. The workflow management system monitors the execution of workflows and detects possible delays through resource-aware Petri nets.In order to test this new approach, different services from a medical maintenance environment have been modeled and simulated.

“…Aalst proposed the formal Workflow-net (WF-net) method for workflow modelling based on a basic Petri net [12]. However, the basic Petri nets describing a real system tend to be complex and extremely large so that extended Petri nets (such as coloured Petri net and hierarchical Petri net) have been used to model a system [13,14]. Liu et al proposed a workflow net based on a coloured Petri net (WFCP-net) that is extended with colour from the WF-net [15].…”

Clinical Pathway (CP) is very complicated and has many exceptional variations. Generally, its treatment course and control steps cannot be totally predefined. Meanwhile, the CP embodies the "Re-flow" therapy features, which is very hard to model, control and manage. Therefore, combined modular modelling method and structure changing mechanisms, a Modular Coloured Petri Net with changeable structure (MCPN-CS) workflow modelling method is proposed. Aimed at the variations of the CP, the workflow model for the CP can be reconfigured dynamically by using the mechanisms of change-by-modification (CBM) and change-by-composition (CBC). A case study on a workflow modelling of osteosarcoma CP is constructed and the modelling is analyzed by proposed deadlock detection algorithms (DDA). The result validates that the proposed method may noticeably enhance the flexibility, adaptation, reusability and maintainability of the workflow model for the CP.
