Hi alux, Andrej, Thanks! I'm still trying to understand how STM works in Clojure, so I would be happy if someone could tell me what's the relationship between Petri nets and the STM model. Is Petri nets analogous to the STM? If you have any good online resource, I would be very grateful if you can send some to me. Hopefully, the understanding I get can be shared with everyone. I think concurrency is quite important for today's applications, and I'm quite interested in that aspect of Clojure.
