A graphical parallel composition operator for process algebras

H Garavel, M Sighireanu - International Conference on Protocol …, 1999 - Springer
Process algebras are suitable for describing networks of communicating processes. In most
process algebras, the description of such networks is achieved using parallel composition …

[PDF][PDF] Towards a second generation of formal description techniques–rationale for the design of E-LOTOS

H Garavel, M Sighireanu - Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop …, 1998 - Citeseer
Process algebras are often advocated as suitable formalisms for the speci cation of
telecommunication protocols and distributed systems. However, despite their mathematical …

Toward constraint-object-oriented development

T Bolognesi - IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, 2000 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, we propose to conservatively extend object-oriented decomposition by letting it
affect also operations (methods). Different objects may support different parts of the same …
