Causal nets (CNs) are Petri nets where causal dependencies are modelled via
inhibitor arcs. They play the role of occurrence nets when representing the
behaviour of a concurrent and distributed system, even when reversibility is
considered. In this paper we extend CNs to account also for asymmetric
conflicts and study (i) how this kind of nets, and their reversible versions,
can be turned into a category; and (ii) their relation with the categories of
reversible asymmetric event structures.
