Abstract. Analysis and synthesis of concurrent systems suffers from
combinatorial state space explosion. That is, even a relatively small sys-
tem specification can (and often does) yield a very large state space.
One of the prominent techniques for alleviating this problem is based on
complete prefixes of Petri net unfoldings. It relies on the partial order
view of concurrent computation, and represents system states implicitly,
using an acyclic Petri net. This talk describes applications of the un-
folding technique to analysis of concurrent systems in general, and to
verification and synthesis of asynchronous circuits in particular.
