We present a process calculus where synchronous composition is the central algebraic notion; equivalences between processes via bisimilarity or trace can be studied quite simply i...
An extension of the -calculus called BS is introduced as a formal basis for functional languages expressing bulk synchronous parallel algorithms. A con uence result is shown. The ...
We introduce COWS (Calculus for Orchestration of Web Services), a new foundational language for SOC whose design has been influenced by WS-BPEL, the de facto standard language for...

The CCS (Calculus of Communicating Systems) process algebra is a well-known formal model of synchronization and communication. It is used for the analysis of safety and liveness i...
A smooth orchestrator is a process with several alternative branches, every one defining synchronizations among co-located channels. Smooth orchestrators constitute a basic mechani...
