More precisely, we consider four classes of nets of increasing expressiveness, ? i , introduce a hierarchy of type systems of decreasing strictness, ? i , i = 0,..., 3, and we prove that a join process is typeable according to ? i if and only if it is (strictly equivalent to) a net of class ? i . In the details, ? 0 and ? 1 contain, resp., usual place/transition and coloured Petri nets, while ? 2 and ? 3 propose two natural notions of high-level net accounting for dynamic reconfiguration and process creation and called reconfigurable and dynamic Petri nets, respectively.
