    We developed a train operation simulation tool to inspect a train operation plan. In applying an improved Petri Net, the train was regarded as a token, and the line and station were regarded as places, respectively, in accordance with the high-speed train operation characteristics and network function. Location change and running information transfer of the high-speed train were realized by customizing a variety of transitions. The model was built based on the concept of component combination, considering the random disturbance in the process of train running. The simulation framework can be generated quickly and the system operation can be completed according to the different test requirements and the required network data. We tested the simulation tool when used for the real-world Wuhan to Guangzhou high-speed line. The results showed that the proposed model can be developed, the simulation results basically coincide with the objective reality, and it can not only test the feasibility of the high-speed train operation plan, but also be used as a support model to develop the simulation platform with more capabilities

    Timed Petri Net Models of Multithreaded Multiprocessor Architectures

    Multithreaded distributed--memory multiprocessor architectures are composed of a number of (multithreaded) processors, each with its memory, and an interconnection network. The long memory latencies and unpredictable synchronization delays are tolerated by context switching, i.e., by suspending the current thread and switching the processor to another `ready' thread provided such a thread is available. Because of very simple representation of concurrency and synchronization, timed Petri net models seem to be well suited for modeling and evaluation of such architectures. However, accurate net models of multithreaded multiprocessors become quite complicated, so their analysis can be a nontrivial task. This paper describes a timed colored Petri net model of a multithreaded multiprocessor architecture, and presents some results obtained by simulation of this model. A simplified approach to modeling such architectures is also proposed. 1. Introduction Current microprocessors employ various..
