An algorithm for the detection of liveness in free choice Petri nets by the calculation of siphons and traps

An important property of functioning of a system is liveness. The dynamic behaviour of a system can be specified by a Petri nets. This specification must be respected the properties of system, one of them is liveness. A technique to verify liveness character is done by the Commoner's theorem. For this, siphons and traps must be determined. This paper shows us a method, which allows calculating siphon and trap sets and determines the liveness character for a system modelled by Petri nets.
