Business processes involve interactions among autonomous partners. We propose that these interactions be specified modularly as protocols. Protocols can be published, enabling imp...
A compositional Petri net based semantics is given to a simple pointer-manipulating language. The model is then applied to give a notion of validity to the judgements made by conc...
We present a stochastic process algebra including immediate actions, deadlock and termination, and explicit stochastic delays, in the setting of weak choice between immediate actio...
In this paper we show how Rate Transition Systems (RTSs) can be used as a unifying framework for the definition of the semantics of stochastic process algebras. RTSs facilitate the...
