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 authors.
The sixth volume of ToPNoC includes revised versions of selected papers
from workshops and tutorials held at the 32nd International Conference
on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency. It also
contains a special section on Networks, Protocols, and Services, as well
as a contributed paper submitted through the regular submission track of
ToPNoC. The 14 papers cover a diverse range of topics including model
checking and system verification, synthesis, foundational work on
specific classes of Petri nets, and innovative applications of Petri
nets and other models of concurrency. Thus this volume gives a good view
of ongoing concurrent systems and Petri nets research.
