Transforming sequential systems into concurrent systems
1985
Theoretical Computer Science
The method is based on the theory of path expressions. The notion of functional equivalence is formally defined and studied. ...
A functionally equivalent system is first specified, then a set of independent actions or abstract resources is devised, and, finally, this sequential system is transformed into an equivalent concurrent ...
Acknowledgment The author would like to thank Peter Lauer for his suggestions, comments and criticism, and for the invitation to Newcastle-upon-Tyne. ...

Actors and Logical Analysis of Interactive Systems
2005
Electronical Notes in Theoretical Computer Science
In this paper we briefly review the notion of interaction semantics for actor systems, and report on work in progress to formalize this interaction model. ...
One is to provide language and principles for specification of and reasoning about such systems. ...
We first make precise our notion of satisfaction. As discussed above, an actor system specification is a predicate on interaction paths. ...

pre-print
As an alternative we introduce the concept of justness. ...
Fairness assumptions are a valuable tool when reasoning about systems. ...
Example 6, for instance, needs an infinite transition system to express that after each a-transition a different b-event is enabled, and likewise for Examples 4, 7, 11 and 12. ...

Computation on graph-like expressions
1980
Theoretical Computer Science
It asserts a modified commutativity property for computational steps in suitable systems of graph-like expressions. ...
This paper begins a three-part study of efficient evaluations of expressions, which shows that for a wide class of expressions there are theoretical benefits in allowing graph-like expressions in evaluation ...
In the conveeiltional system there are two constants S and K, which are expressions, and for all expressions Tl and T2, ( Tl T2) is an expression. ...

BRICS Report Series
This kind of formula gives rise to a new notion of finite automaton<br />which characterizes the expressive power of the mu-calculus over<br />all transition systems. ...
The notion of disjunctive formula is defined and it is shown<br />that every formula is semantically equivalent to a disjunctive formula. ...
Moreover on any infinite path there is one and only one infinite trace.
Theorem. For every formula there exists an equivalent disjunctive formula. Proof. Let T be a regular tableau for a formula γ. ...

A meaning explanation for HoTT
2019
Synthese
Finally, I outline a pre-formal meaning explanation for HoTT based on spatial notions like "shape", "path", "point" etc. which in particular provides an intuitive justification of the axiom of univalence ...
I then explain why Martin-Löf's original meaning explanation for type theory no longer applies to HoTT. ...
But by (U) we know that any path can only be turned into an equivalence in a unique way and that conversely every equivalence uniquely determines a path. ...
