An example for an ITP (A) and its reduced form (B). (A) An example of a small network that is CTI and contains an ITP (ti, tj). (B) The reduced network of (A). Place p12 absorbed the edges of places p1 and p2 of the original net. The transitions t2 and t3 were neglected. The weight of edge t1, p12 was the sum of the weights of the edges t1, p1 and t1, p2 of the unreduced net in (A). The reduced net has the two TIs, (t1 + 2t4) and (t1 + 2t5). Extensions of these invariants gave the TIs,(t1 + t3 + 2t4) and (t1 + t2 + 2t5) of the original net. The TI, (t1 + t4 + t5), is not minimal for the reduced net and will not be generated.
