Process algebras with name passing can be suitable to describe dynamical changes of connections. To describe mobile communication, however, it is necessary to consider locations at which processes run. We propose a description method to design such systems using a concurrency calculus in this paper. The concept of a field is introduced to model locality. An extension of 1r-calculus with a field is proposed. A field is given when behaviors of a target system is verified for a particular
