摘要
Timed Petri nets (TPNs) are useful for performance evaluation of discrete event systems due to their mathematical formalism. This paper proposes the use of TPNs to model parallel railroad level crossing traffic safety control systems. Double-track railroad lines using TPNs are illustrated. The resulting models allow us to identify and thus avoid critical scenarios in such systems by using conditions and events of the model that control the phase of traffic light alternations. Their analysis is performed to demonstrate how the models enforce the phase of traffic transitions using the method of a reachability graph with timed information. The liveness and reversibility of the proposed model are verified. This helps advance the state-of-the-art in traffic safety related to the intersection of railroads and roadways.
