Welcome to the Petri Nets 2026
On the occasion of the 100th birthday of Carl Adam Petri, the Petri Net Conference 2026 will take place in Hamburg, at the university where Petri held an honorary professorship. Therefore, contributions that include a historical perspective are particularly welcome.
We seek papers presenting original research on the application or theory of Petri nets, as well as contributions addressing concurrent systems more broadly, or applications of concurrency to system design.
