Algorithm to convert programmable logic controller Ladder Logic Diagram models to Petri Net models

Petri Nets (PN) modeling has been proposed as an alternative to Ladder Logic Diagram (LLD) modeling to program complex programmable logic controllers (PLCs) due to its high level of abstraction and functionalities. Due to design legacy, existing LLD models are converted to PN models. This paper prop...
