Original Abstract

The article describes two of the problems that arise in the area ofgenerating and exploiting state spaces of the object-oriented Petrinets (OOPNs) which underlie the modelling language used in the toolcalled PNtalk. We first explain the influence of identifiers ofdynamically appearing and disappearing instances upon the state spaceexplosion problem. We describe and compare methods of working withidentifiers based on sophisticated naming rules and mechanisms forabstracting names. Subsequently, there are discussed several approachesto specifying properties of systems to be validated by means of statespaces of their OOPN-based models.
