Fast equivalence-checking for normed context-free processes
Bisimulation equivalence is decidable in polynomial time over normed graphs generated by a context-free grammar. We present a new algorithm, working in time O(n5 ), thus improving...

On the complexity of checking semantic equivalences between pushdown processes and finite-state processes
Simulation preorder/equivalence and bisimulation equivalence are the most commonly used equivalences in concurrency theory. Their standard definitions are often called strong sim...

Rooted Branching Bisimulation as a Congruence
This article presents a congruence format, in structural operational semantics, for rooted branching bisimulation equivalence. The format imposes additional requirements on Groote...

Petri nets are less expressive than state-extended PA
We show that the class of Petri nets is less expressive with respect to bisimulation equivalence than the class of PA processes extended with a finite state control unit. Key word...

Network Applications of Graph Bisimulation
Abstract Synchronising Graphs is a system of parallel graph transformation designed for modeling process interaction in a network environment. We propose a theory of context-free s...

Actions Speak Louder than Words: Proving Bisimilarity for Context-Free Processes
Baeten, Bergstra, and Klop (and later Caucal) have proved the remarkable result that bisimulation equivalence is decidable for irredundant context-free grammars. In this paper we ...

Bisimulations for a Calculus of Broadcasting Systems
We develop a theory of bisimulation equivalence for the broadcast calculus CBS. Both the strong and weak versions of bisimulation congruence we study are justi ed in terms of a cha...

A Process-Algebraic Language for Probabilistic I/O Automata
We present a process-algebraic language for Probabilistic I/O Automata (PIOA). To ensure that PIOA specifications given in our language satisfy the “input-enabled” property, w...

Partially-Commutative Context-Free Processes
Bisimulation equivalence is decidable in polynomial time for both sequential and commutative normed context-free processes, known as BPA and BPP, respectively. Despite apparent sim...
