Description

Book Synopsis

Collects the Latest Research Involving the Application of Process Algebra to Computing



Exploring state-of-the-art applications, Process Algebra for Parallel and Distributed Processing shows how one formal method of reasoningprocess algebrahas become a powerful tool for solving design and implementation challenges of concurrent systems.



Parallel Programming
Divided into three parts, the book begins by parallelizing an algorithm for the Cell Broadband Engine processor of IBM, Sony, and Toshiba. It also develops a runtime environment that can be ported to different parallel platforms and describes the formal model of action systems.



Distributed Systems
The next part presents a process algebra (mCRL2) that targets distributed applications, looks at how to turn prose descriptions into unambiguous specifications, extends pi-calculus to create a service-oriented mobility abstract mach
