Categorical Models for Fairness and a Fully Abstract Presheaf Semantics of SCCS with Finite Delay?
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a presheaf model for the observation of infinite as well as finite computations. We apply it to give a denotational semantics of SCCS with finite delay, in which the meanings of recursion are given by final coalgebras and meanings of finite delay by initial algebras of the process equations for delay. This can be viewed as a first step in representing fairness in presheaf semantics. We give a concrete representation of the presheaf model as a category of generalised synchronisation trees and show that it is coreflective in a category of generalised transition systems, which are a special case of the general transition systems of Hennessy and Stirling. The open map bisimulation is shown to coincide with extended bisimulation of Hennessy and Stirling, which is essentially fair CTL -bisimulation. Finally we formulate Milners operational semantics of SCCS with finite delay in terms of generalised transition systems and prove that the presheaf semantics is fully abstract with respect to extended bisimulation.

متن کاملCategorical Models for Fairness: Completion vs Delay
We study two different approaches to semantics for fairness within the categorical framework of presheaf models for concurrency [1, 2]. The first approach, used in e.g. dataflow models, is based on representing finite or infinite completed observations. A completed observation is the result of an infinite computation. A finite completed observation is then the result of an infinite computation ...
متن کاملA Fixpoint Approach to Finite Delay and Fairness
We introduce a language SCCS with a restriction operation on recursion. This involves a relativization of processes to formal environments which can be seen as a simple typing of processes. The fragment SCCS of SCCS drops explicit typing by introducing both least and greatest xpoint operators. SCCS is expressive enough so that both SCCS and the Finite Delay Calculus of Milner 21] can be regarde...
