Abstract
A Petri net (PN) is said to be live if it is possible to re any transition, although not
immediately, from every reachable marking. A liveness enforcing supervisory policy (LESP)
determines which controllable transition is to be prevented from ring at a marking, to
ensure the supervised Petri net (PN) is live.
A LESP is said to be minimally restrictive if the following property is true { if a minimally
restrictive LESP prevents the ring of a transition at a marking, then all other LESPs should
do the same.
We restrict our attention to a class of general Petri nets (PN) structures, where the
existence of an LESP for an instance initialized at a marking, implies the existence of an
LESP when the same instance is initialized with a larger initial marking. We show that the
minimally restrictive LESP for an instance N from this class is characterized by a collection of
boolean formulae f tc(N)gtc2Tc , where Tc is the set of controllable transitions in the PN. The
literals in tc(N) are true if and only if the token-load of speci c places meet a threshold.
Consequently, appropriately placed threshold-sensors, which detect if the token-load of a
place is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold, provide su cient information
to implement the minimally restrictive LESP.
