Abstract

This paper introduces a new flow calculation theory for a wide subclass of coloured nets : the regular nets (R.N.). Their parametrization allows to study at the same time the flows for all nets differing only by the sizes of the colour sets. The algebraic structure of the flows subspace provides a fundamental decomposition theorem leading to an algorithm computing a flow basis for a parametrized regular net. The modelling of a significant classical example is presented with the computation of a basis of flows.
