Abstract

In this paper, we define Timed Petri Net schedules and study some of their properties. We prove that the set of schedules issued from a firable sequence of the underlying Petri net has a minimum element we call earliest schedule of the sequence. We then propose a polynomial algorithm to compute it. In order to study earliest schedules, we introduce next a graph we call earliest state graph. Finally, for bounded Petri nets, we prove that earliest schedules issued from periodic infinite sequences are K-periodic and constitute a dominant subset.
