Abstract:
The authors explore the analogy between software processes and real-time systems by discussing the applicability of a formalism developed for real-time systems specification to the specification and enactment of software processes. The formalism, called ER nets, is based on Petri nets. A specialization of ER nets for this new application area is introduced, and its applicability is discussed through a case study. Ongoing research directions are outlined.<>
