Abstract
Selected applications of nets by other authors are discussed, to show a range of use of the models, and to show the modifications to nets that have been adopted for specific applications. The topics include models of a parallel algorithm for lexical analysis, net augmentation to detect and correct errors, an approach to error correction in distributed systems with no central control, and modeling aids to design of properly functioning systems.
