Summary :

Petri net is a mathematical model for concurrent systems. Petri net is known to have less modeling power than that of Turing machine. Lack of zero testing ability is the main reason of this fact. Indeed, every extended Petri net model that can perform zero testing is equivalent to Turing machine. Time Petri net is one of the models with ability of zero testing. It is of theoretical interest what structure enables zero testing. This paper shows that time asymmetric choice net can simulate register machines. The result implies reachability problem of this subclass of time Petri net is undecidable.
