- How about using a X-based MacDraw-like tool for drawing petri nets?
- You can try 'tgif'. It also allows you to build library of symbols.
- You can obtain tgif from the following places through anonymous ftp:
-
- export.lcs.mit.edu /contrib/tgif-2.12-p11.tar.Z
- cs.ucla.edu /pub/tgif/tgif-2.12-p11.tar.Z
-
- rye.cs.ucla.edu /pub/tgif-2.12-p11.tar.Z
- /pub/samples_tgif/README
- /pub/samples_tgif/petri.tar.Z
-
- On rye.cs.ucla.edu, there is a small sample of petri net primitives
- (place, transition, timed-transidion, and token) and an example. You
- can build more once you understand how to build symbols from the man pages.
