The paper studies the behavior of control structures of algorithms designed for (partly) parallel execution. A generalization of Peterson’s computation sequence set, the partial language, is discussed, which reflects the concurrency of events. In particular, the families of partial languages definable by Petri nets and by safe Petri nets are investigated with respect to closedness under certain operations. Trace languages (Mazurkiewicz) and path expressions (Campbell and Habermann) are included in the considerations.

Cause-effect structures are objects of a formal system devised for modeling, testing and verifying properties of tasks, where parallel execution of actions is the most characteristic feature. This is an algebraic system called a quasi-semiring. In this paper elementary cause-effect structures, a system behaviourally equivalent to 1-safe Petri nets, are extended by the following features: weighted edges, multi-valued nodes having capacities (counterpart of place/transition Petri nets), inhibitors and a model of time. The extensions are accomplished by modifying the notion of state and semantics, but leaving unchanged structure of the quasi-semiring expressions.

Currently, cooling systems adjust their control structures with the objective of satisfying the demands of different applications. In consequence, the centralized structure frequently used in this type of applications has evolved towards a distributed structure to increase the quality of response to the current demands of the market. However, a correct specification of this type of structure demands several challenges to be overcome, such as the management of specialized resources, integration methods, coordination of independent subsystems, clarity of information, and increased dynamics of systems. This study addressed the modelling of the secondary cooling system that is located in the refrigeration laboratory of the School of Mechanical Engineering at the Universidad del Valle in Cali, Colombia. A distributed structure was considered by the integration of several modelling tools, such as Coloured Petri nets. Using the structural model and successive refinements, the system behaviour representation was obtained.
