Background Check: CPN Tools

CPN Tools has had a few different background colors.  If you want the full(ish) overview, check out my graphical overview of CPN Tools.  It does not contain some of the more internal releases, including a bright blue one.  I originally changed from gray to pale green to make the tool fit with the home page […]

Improved Support for Low-level Nets in CPN Tools

I wanted to add some minor conveniences to CPN Tools.  Yesterday I got the bright idea that shy shouldn’t CPN Tools make it much easier to make low-level models.  It is already possible to emulate low-level nets, but it takes considerable work as CPN Tools needs a lot of inscriptions. I decided to just do […]

RFC: New Features in CPN Tools

I already wrote about conveniences that may or may not go into CPN Tools 3.6.  In this post I’ll look into some features that would be nice to add to CPN Tools 4.0 (or later).  I do not promise that any of these will become reality as they all require significant effort.  If you are […]

RFC: Conveniences in CPN Tools

CPN Tools offers a very rich environment in which most anything can be realized. Colored Petri nets have no need for inhibitor arcs, ordered or bounded places, reset arcs, etc. But sometimes it would be convenient if we didn’t have to go thru hoops to do something that is conceptually easy… […]
