Abstract

The present paper shows how an equivalence relation on the set of firing sequences of general nets, which have the same set of processes, should be defined. Using this results a construction of a 1-safe Petri net from any net with finite capacities is given, and it preservers, in a certain sense, the set of processes. Some regular properties of the set of processes of bounded nets are obtained.
