Stochastic Petri nets are a popular tool for modelling and performance analysis of complex discrete-event stochastic systems. This book looks at way of modelling a system as an SPN with general firing times and of studying the long-run behaviour of the resulting SPN model using computer simulation.

Written by a leading researcher this book presents an introduction to Stochastic Petri Nets covering the modeling power of the proposed SPN model, the stability conditions and the simulation methods. Its unique and well-written approach provides a timely and important addition to the literature. Appeals to a wide range of researchers in engineering, computer science, mathematics and OR.
