Abstract

This paper examines the impact of disruptions on consumption cycles of resources. Such a cycle consists of states and transitions that depict how a resource is prepared, consumed, locked, unlocked, and withdrawn. It happens that events like last-minute upgrades and urgent fixes arise disrupting the resource’s ongoing consumption. Disruption leads to suspending an ongoing consumption to accommodate these events according to 3 scenarios referred to, in this paper, as co-existence, taking turns, and co-existence/taking turns. To verify the correctness of the resources’ consumption cycles with respect to each scenario, Petri Nets (PN) are developed linking this verification to properties like liveness and deadlock freeness.

Notes

  1. 1.

    www.shopify.com/encyclopedia/resource-management

  2. 2.

    Resumption conditions vary according to the resource’s type and consumption property. Conditions could be availability for l resources and access rights for ns resources.

  3. 3.

    Thanks to immediate-resumption transition.

  4. 4.

    Consumption synchronization does not fall into the scope of this paper.

  5. 5.

    Another resource consumption starts after the renewal.

  6. 6.

    End of consumption cycle.

  7. 7.

    1\(^{st}\) suspension that will be followed by other “artificial” suspensions to allow either the planned operations or the unplanned operations to resume resource consumption.

  8. 8.

    No consumption renewal is requested by the planned operations.
