On the Expressive Power of
Extended Process Rewrite Systems Mojmír Kretínský
April 2004 |
Abstract:
We provide a unified view on three extensions of Process
rewrite systems (PRS) and compare their and PRS's expressive power. We show
that the class of Petri Nets is less expressible up to bisimulation than the
class of Process Algebra extended with finite state control unit. Further we
show our main result that the reachability problem for PRS extended with a so
called weak finite state unit is decidable.
