Proceedings of a September 2001 conference held in Aachen, Germany to discuss areas of timed and stochastic Petri nets and their usage for performance and dependability evaluation. Twenty-three contributions are arranged in sections on application studies; analysis of large models; reachability graphic construction; non-Markovian and fluid models; formal foundation; timed nets; and modeling frameworks and tools. A sampling of topics: simulation based performance analysis of web servers, embedded processes in generalized stochastic Petri nets, time domain analysis of NMSPN with PRI transitions, equivalence and aggregation of GSPNs with labeled transitions.
