Fair testing

A Rensink, W Vogler - Information and Computation, 2007 - Elsevier
In this paper we present a solution to the long-standing problem of characterising the
coarsest liveness-preserving pre-congruence with respect to a full (TCSP-inspired) process …

Separation of synchronous and asynchronous communication via testing

D Cacciagrano, F Corradini, C Palamidessi - Theoretical Computer Science, 2007 - Elsevier
One of the early results concerning the asynchronous π-calculus which significantly
contributed to its popularity is the capability of encoding the output prefix of the (choiceless) …

Synchrony vs asynchrony in communication primitives

D Gorla - Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science, 2007 - Elsevier
We study, from the expressiveness point of view, the impact of synchrony in the
communication primitives that arise when combining together some common and useful …

Fair π

Feature refinement

S Reeves, D Streader - Fifth IEEE International Conference on …, 2007 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Development by formal stepwise refinement offers a guarantee that an implementation
satisfies a specification. But refinement is frequently defined in such a restrictive way as to …
