Verifying generalised and structural soundness of workflow nets via relaxations
Workflow nets are a well-established mathematical formalism for the analysis of business processes arising from either modeling tools or process mining. The central decision problems for workflow nets are k-soundness, generalised soundness and structural soundness. Most existing tools focus on k-soundness. In this work, we propose novel scalable semi-procedures for generalised and structural soundness. This is achieved via integral and continuous Petri net reachability relaxations. We show that our approach is competitive against state-of-the-art tools.
