Abstract:
Reliability analysis is often based on stochastic discrete event models like Markov models or stochastic Petri nets. For complex dynamical systems with numerous components, analytical expressions of the steady state are tedious to work out because of the combinatory explosion with discrete models. Moreover, the convergence of stochastic estimators is slow. For these reasons, fluidification can be investigated to estimate the asymptotic behavior of stochastic processes with timed continuous Petri nets. The contribution of this paper is to sum up some properties of the asymptotic mean marking and average throughputs of stochastic and timed continuous Petri nets, then to point out the limits of the fluidification.
