Abstract

A possibilistic Petri nets model (PPN) is proposed to imitate possibilistic reasoning. A possibilistic token carries information to describe an object and its corresponding possibility and necessity measures. Possibilistic transitions are classified into four types: inference transitions perform possibilistic reasoning; duplication transitions duplicate a possibilistic token to several tokens representing the same proposition and possibility and necessity measures; aggregation transitions combine several possibilistic tokens with the same classical proposition; and aggregation-duplication transitions combine aggregation transitions and duplication transitions.
