This book constitutes the proceedings of the 47th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency, PETRI NETS 2026, held in Hamburg, Germany, during June 2026.The 14 full papers and 6 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions. The topics of accepted papers includes Parallel computing models, Abstract machines, Formal languages and automata theory.

This book is the proceedings of the Structures in Concurrency Theory workshop (STRICT) that was held from 11 th to l3th May 1995 in Berlin, Germany. It includes three invited contributions - by J. de Bakker, E. Best et aI, and E. R. Olderog and M. Schenke - and all papers which were submitted and accepted for presentation. Concurrency Theory deals with formal aspects of concurrent systems. It uses partly competing and partly complementary formalisms and structures. The aim of this workshop was to present and compare different formalisms and results in Concurrency Theory. STRICT was organized by the Humboldt-University Berlin and the ESPRIT Basic Research Working Group CALIBAN. Original papers had been sought from all scientists in the field of Concurrency Theory. The Programme Committee selected twenty contributions with various different topics, including Petri Nets, Process Algebras, Distributed Algorithms, Formal Semantics, and others. I am grateful to the Programme Committee and to the other referees for the careful evaluation of the submitted papers.

In recent years the management of business processes has emerged as one of the major developments to ease the understanding of, communication about, and evolution of process-oriented information systems in a variety of appli- tion domains. Based on explicit representations of business processes, process stakeholders can communicate about process structure, content, and possible improvements. Formal analysis, veri?cation and simulation techniques have the potential to show de?cits and to e?ectively lead to better and more ?exible processes. Process mining facilitates the discovery of process speci?cations from process logs that are readily available in many organizations. This volume of Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science contains the papers presented at the 2nd International Conference on Business Process M- agement (BPM 2004) which took place in Potsdam, Germany, in June 2004. From more than 70 submissions BPM 2004 received, 19 high-quality research papers were selected. BPM 2004 is part of a conference series that provides a forum for researchers and practitioners in all aspects of business process management. In June 2003, the 1st International Conference on Business Process Management took place in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. Its proceedings were published as Volume 2678 of Lecture Notes in Computer Science by Springer-Verlag. A previous volume (LNCS1806)onBusinessProcessManagementwasbasedonfoureventsdevoted to this topic.

The very ?rst model of concurrent and distributed systems was introduced by C.A. Petri in his seminal Ph.D. thesis in 1964. Petri nets has remained a central model for concurrentsystemsfor40 years,andthey areoften usedasa yardstick for other models of concurrency. As a matter of fact, many other models have been developed since then, and this research area is ?ourishing today. The goal of the 4th Advanced Course on Petri Nets held in Eichsta ..tt, Germany in September 2003 was to present applications and the theory of Petri Nets in the context of a whole range of other models. We believe that in this way the participants of the course received a broad and in-depth picture of research in concurrent and distributed systems. It is also the goal of this volume to convey this picture. The volume is based on lectures given at the Advanced Course, but in order to provide a balanced p- sentation of the ?eld, some of the lectures are not included, and some material not presented in Eichst. att is covered here. In particular, a series of introductory lectures was not included in this volume, as the material they covered is well - tablishedby now,andwellpresentedelsewhere (e.g.,inW.ReisigandG. Roz- berg, eds., "Lectures on Petri Nets," LNCS 1491, 1492, Springer-Verlag, 1997 - these two volumes are based on the 3rd Advanced Course on Petri Nets).

This volume is a documentation of the main results in the research area "In- gration of Software Speci?cation Techniques for Applications in Engineering". On one hand it is based on the Priority Program "Integration von Techniken der Softwarespezi?kation fur .. ingenieurwissenschaftliche Anwendungen", short Soft- Spez,oftheGermanResearchCouncil(DFG). Ontheotherhanditcontainsnew contributions of international experts in this research area, some of which were presented at the third international workshop INT 2004 on "Integration of Sp- i?cation Techniques for Applications in Engineering". INT 2004 was launched as a satellite event of ETAPS in Barcelona, the "European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software". The Priority Program SoftSpez was initiated by W. Brauer, M. Broy, H. Ehrig, H. J. Kreowski, H. Reichel, and H. Weber concerning di?erent aspects from computer science, and by E. Schnieder and E. Westk. amper concerning two main application areas in engineering, namely "Tra?c Control Systems" and "Production Automation". After acceptance of SoftSpez by the German Research Council for the period of 1998-2004 a call for speci?c projects within this priority program was launched, where 11 projects from about 75 project proposals were accepted for a period of two years.Since 1998 each year the main research proposals and results of the projects have been presented at an annual colloquium of the priority program, and every two years the projects have been evaluated by an independent group of referees appointed by the G- man Research Council. At this point we would like to thank A.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 19th annual International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets. The aim of the Petri net conference is to create a forum for the dissemination of the latest results in the application and theory of Petri nets. It always takes place in the last week of June. Typically there are 150 - 200 participants. About one third of these come from industry while the rest are from universities and research institutions. The conferences and a number of other activities are coordinated by a steering committee with the following members: G. Balbo (Italy), J. Billington (Australia), G. DeMichelis(Italy),C. Girault(France),K. Jensen (Denmark), S. Kumagai (Japan), T. Murata (USA), C. A. Petri (Germany; honorary member), W. Reisig (Germany), G. Roucairol (France), G. Rozenberg (The Netherlands; chairman), M. Silva (Spain). The 19th conference has been organized for the rst time in Portugal, by the Department of Electrical Engineering of the Faculty of Sciences and Technology of the New University of Lisbon, together with the Center for Intelligent Robotics of UNINOVA. It takes place in Lisbon at the same time as EXPO’98, the last world exhibition of the 20th century.

Business processes are among today's hottest topics in the science and practice of information systems. Business processes and workflow management systems attract a lot of attention from R&D professionals in software engineering, information systems, business-oriented computer science, and management sciences.The carefully reviewed chapters contributed to this state-of-the-art survey by internationally leading scientists consolidate work presented at various workshops on the topic organized by the editors of the book in the past few years. The book spans the whole spectrum of business process management ranging from theoretical aspects, conceptual models, and application scenarios to implementation issues. It will become a valuable source of reference and information for R&D professionals active in the fascinating interdisciplinary area of business process management and for ambitious practitioners.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 34th International Conference on Applications and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency, PETRI NETS 2013, held in Milan, Italy, in June 2013. The 18 regular papers and 2 tool papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 56 submissions. The book also contains 2 invited talks. All current issues on research and development in the area of Petri nets and related models of concurrent systems are addressed.

These Transactions publish archival papers in the broad area of Petri nets and other models of concurrency, ranging from theoretical work to tool support and industrial applications. ToPNoC issues are published as LNCS volumes, and hence are widely distributed and indexed. This Journal has its own Editorial Board which selects papers based on a rigorous two-stage refereeing process. ToPNoC contains:- Revised versions of a selection of the best papers from workshops and tutorials at the annual Petri net conferences- Special sections/issues within particular subareas (similar to those published in the Advances in Petri Nets series)- Other papers invited for publication in ToPNoC- Papers submitted directly to ToPNoC by their authorsThe 10th volume of ToPNoC contains revised and extended versions of a selection of the best workshop papers presented at the 35th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency, Petri Nets 2014, and the 14th International Conference on Application of Concurrency to System Design, ACSD 2014. It also contains one paper submitted directly to ToPNoC.The 8 papers cover a diverse range of topics including model checking and system verification, refinement, and synthesis; foundational work on specific classes of Petri nets; and innovative applications of Petri nets and other models of concurrency.

The 11th volume of ToPNoC contains revised and extended versions of a selection of the best workshop papers presented at the 36th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency, Petri Nets 2015, and the 15th International Conference on Application of Concurrency to System Design, ACSD 2014. It also contains one paper submitted directly to ToPNoC.The 16 papers cover a diverse range of topics including model checking and system verification, refinement and synthesis; foundational work on specific classes of Petri nets; and innovative applications of Petri nets and other models of concurrency. Application areas covered in this volume are: security, service composition, communication protocols, business processes, distributed systems, and multi-agent systems. Thus, this volume gives a good overview of ongoing research on concurrent systems and Petri nets.

The 18th volume of ToPNoC contains revised and extended contributions based on the lectures delivered during the 6th Advanced Course on Petri Nets, ACPN 2023. The 7 lectures and 4 practical papers address topics such as modelling distributed systems; Petri Net essentials; semantics of concurrent systems; a method for synthesising Petri net models from given transition systems; the Reachability Problem in Petri nets; model checking timed and strategic properties; analysis and synthesis of subclasses of Petri nets; design decisions in process discovery; extracting event logs; application of coloured Petri nets for modelling software architecture; and Petri net model checking.
