Abstract

Weighted synchronic distances have been introduced by Kurt Lautenbach in [2] for pairs of single events and for nets which are covered by exactly one reproduction component. We will generalize this notion to pairs of sets of events and to arbitrary cyclic condition/ event-systems.

Weighted synchronic distances yield a metric space and meet furthermore some other numerical properties which are already known for unweighted synchronic distances [4]. We will show how to compute weighted synchronic distances and how to find weights which yield finite distances. This will be achieved by help of linear algebra.
