An algebra of quantum processes [PDF]
We introduce an algebra qCCS of pure quantum processes in which communications by moving quantum states physically are allowed and computations are modeled by super-operators, but no classical data is explicitly involved. An operational semantics of qCCS is presented in terms of (nonprobabilistic) labeled transition systems. Strong bisimulation between

Probabilistic Process Algebra and Strategic Interleaving
We first present a probabilistic version of ACP that rests on the principle that probabilistic choices are always resolved before choices involved in alternative composition and parallel composition are resolved and then extend this probabilistic version

In regards to the nature of time, it has become commonplace to hear physicists state that time does not exist and that the perception of time passing and of events occurring in time is an illusion. In this paper, I argue that physics is actually agnostic

The wide application of Cyber Physical System (CPS) makes the security of CPS more and more concerned. As the key factors affecting the safety of CPS, space and time have also become the current research hotspot. The space and time safety of CPS requires

An Abstraction Technique for Verifying Shared-Memory Concurrency
Modern concurrent and distributed software is highly complex. Techniques to reason about the correct behaviour of such software are essential to ensure its reliability.

Robust Deadlock Control for Reconfigurable Printing Manufacturing System Based on Process Algebra
The competition for shared resources in printing manufacturing system may lead to deadlock, which could cause unnecessary downtime and bring vast economic loss for enterprises.

A Process Algebra for Interworkings [PDF]
The Interworking language (lW) is a graphical formalism for displaying the communication behaviour of system components. In this chapter, we develop a format semantics for the Interworking language. This semantics must support the analysis of (collections of) Interworking diagrams and allow to express the relation between diagrams.

On the Modeling and Verification of Collective and Cooperative Systems
The formal description and verification of networks of cooperative and interacting agents is made difficult by the interplay of several different behavioral patterns, models of communication, scalability issues.

The Algebra of Recursively Defined Processes and the Algebra of Regular Processes [PDF]
We introduce recursively defined processes and regular processes, both in presence and absence of communication. It is shown that both classes are process algebras. As an example of recursively defined processes, Bag and Stack are discussed in detail. It is shown that Bag cannot be recursively defined without merge.

Process algebra with guards [PDF]
Abstract We extend process algebra with guards, comparable to the guards in guarded commands or conditions in common programming constructs such as ‘if — then — else — fi’ and ‘while — do — od’. The extended language is provided with an operational semantics based on transitions between pairs of a process and a (data-)state.
