Exotic semirings such as the “(max, +) semiring” (R ∪ {−∞}, max, +), or the “tropical semiring” (N ∪ {+∞}, min, +), have been invented and reinvented many times s...
As long as no cooperation between processes is supposed to take place, one may consider them separately and need not ask for the progress of the respective other processes. If a c...
Relational database systems represent the current standard technology for implementing database applications. Now that the object-oriented paradigm becomes more and more mature in...
Asynchronous circuits have received much attention recently due to their potential for energy savings. Process algebras have been extensively used in the modelling, analysis and sy...
