Abstract
This paper proposes a method for encoding discrete systems together with their tasks into an extended Petri net. The main feature of this method is the interpretation of tasks, which are first described by modal logic formulae, into what we call “task unit graphs” that can be naturally combined with a Petri net. The combination of a normal Petri net and task unit graphs provides a method for detecting conflicts among tasks. Furthermore, we examine a way for resolving such conflicts and attaining the correct behavior of systems.
