Mixed Integer Programming-Based Liveness Test for FMS with Full Routing Flexibility by Lida Dong, Tianyang Chi, Chengcheng Zhu, Jun Yin

“…Furthermore, the liveness property of S*PR nets can be tested in two steps: first, for a given S*PR net, constructing an OSC-S*PR net to ensure that if the latter is live then the former must be live; second, testing liveness of the constructed OSC-S*PR net by the aforementioned MIP-based algorithm. In the end, the performance of the method is demonstrated by an application of FMS.…”
