Abstract
This paper describes an animated graphics-based training support method for bug fixing of Extended Place/transition Nets (EPNs), and illustrates a prototype tool that the core of the method has been implemented into. The prototype tool gives a trainee a faulty EPN and its animated graphics. The motion of the animated graphics is synchronized with the motion of the faulty/fixed EPN. Therefore, it is expected that a trainee can intuitively understand the EPN, and smoothly try to fix its bug. The result of bug fixing is checked by the prototype tool. The discussion based on trial application of the prototype tool reveals its effectiveness and challenges for the future.
