Unifying Recursive and Co-recursive Definitions in Sheaf Categories
In this paper we present a theorem for defining fixed-points in categories of sheaves. This result gives a unifying and general account of most techniques used in computer science ...

On the Expressiveness of Infinite Behavior and Name Scoping in Process Calculi
In the literature there are several CCS-like process calculi differing in the constructs for the specification of infinite behavior and in the scoping rules for channel names. In t...

On Finite Alphabets and Infinite Bases: From Ready Pairs to Possible Worlds
We prove that if a finite alphabet of actions contains at least two elements, then the equational theory for the process algebra BCCSP modulo any semantics no coarser than readines...

Electoral Systems in Ambient Calculi
This paper compares the expressiveness of ambient calculi against different dialects of the pi-calculus. Cardelli and Gordon encoded the asynchronous pi-calculus into their calcul...

Duality for Labelled Markov Processes
Labelled Markov processes (LMPs) are automata whose transitions are given by probability distributions. In this paper we present a ‘universal’ LMP as the spectrum of a commutat...

On Term Rewriting Systems Having a Rational Derivation
Several types of term rewriting systems can be distinguished by the way their rules overlap. In particular, we define the classes of prefix, suffix, bottom-up and top-down system...

On Recognizable Timed Languages
In this work we generalize the fundamental notion of recognizability from untimed to timed languages. The essence of our definition is the existence of a right-morphism from the m...

Perfect-Information Stochastic Parity Games
We show that in perfect-information stochastic parity games with a finite state space both players have optimal pure positional strategies. Contrary to the recent proofs of this f...

Bisimulation on Speed: Lower Time Bounds
More than a decade ago, Moller and Tofts published their seminal work on relating processes that are annotated with lower time bounds, with respect to speed. Their paper has left o...

Polynomials for Proving Termination of Context-Sensitive Rewriting
Abstract. We show how to generate well-founded and stable term orderings based on polynomial interpretations over the real numbers. Monotonicity (another usual requirement in termi...
