It is written in a vivid and entertaining manner, providing an in-depth discussion of the background behind Petri's best-known contribution to computer science, the Petri net. In this way the book can be read as a first introduction to nets, but it also covers the theoretical, physical and philosophical foundations behind nets, thus facilitating a comprehensive understanding of the wider range of Petri's works. The book is intended for readers with a previous knowledge in computer science, as well as for ?interested non-professionals?, who want to get to know a remarkable personality of contemporary science. 606 $aComputers 606 $aMathematics 606 $aPhilosophy 606 $aHistory of Computing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I24024 606 $aMathematics, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M00009 606 $aPhilosophy, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E00003 606 $aTheory of Computation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I16005 615 0$aComputers. 615 0$aMathematics. 615 0$aPhilosophy. 615 14$aHistory of Computing. 615 24$aMathematics, general. 615 24$aPhilosophy, general. 615 24$aTheory of Computation. 676 $a004.0151 700 $aSmith$b Einar$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0929067 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299254903321 996 $aCarl Adam Petri$92518647 997 $aUNINA
