Petri Net-Based Verification of Adaptive Traffic Light Control with AIMD Algorithm

Abstract

This paper introduces and analyses the performance of the Petri net model created to simulate a traffic control system using the Additive Increase Multiplicative Decrease (AIMD) algorithm. The Petri net model was designed using TimeNET [1] tool. The model was evaluated by analysing the Reachability Graph generated by a Depth First Search (DFS) and Backtracking based algorithm. Several criteria such as Stability, Boundedness, Deadlock, etc. were verified by our proposed algorithm. The model was then validated through a C++ code to ensure it performs correctly under different situations.
