In the last fifteen years, the high performance computing (HPC) community has claimed for parallel programming environments that reconciles generality, higher level of abstraction, portability, and efficiency for distributed-memory parallel computing platforms. The Hash component model appears as an alternative for addressing HPC community claims for fitting these requirements. This paper presents foundations that will enable a parallel programming environment based on the Hash model to address the problems of "debugging", performance evaluation and verification of formal properties of parallel program by means of a powerful, simple, and widely adopted formalism: Petri nets.
