In parallel discrete event processes you have to distinguish between a function-conditioned and a time-conditioned nondeterministic behaviour. The function-conditioned nondeterministic behaviour can be described by a nondeterministic automaton. In order to counteract the time-conditioned nondeterministic behaviour staying operations are to insert in a suited way. On the basis of appropriate theoretical considerations frame conditions for modelling the processes are formulated. The processes are described by process nets, from which the control algorithms are generated. The developed method is demonstrated by an example.
