Robustness of a bisimulation-type faster-than preorder

چکیده

TACS is an extension of CCS where upper time bounds for delays can be specified. Lüttgen and Vogler defined three variants of bismulation-type faster-than relations and showed that they all three lead to the same preorder, demonstrating the robustness of their approach. In the present paper, the operational semantics of TACS is extended; it is shown that two of the variants still give the same preorder as before, underlining robustness. An explanation is given why this result fails for the third variant. It is also shown that another variant, which mixes old and new operational semantics, can lead to smaller relations that prove the same preorder.

Bisimulation on Speed: A Unified Approach

Two process–algebraic approaches have been developed for comparing two bisimulation–equivalent processes with respect to speed: the one of Moller/Tofts equips actions with lower time bounds, while the other by Lüttgen/Vogler considers upper time bounds instead. This paper sheds new light onto both approaches by testifying to their close relationship and brings the research into bisimulation–bas...

Bisimulation on Speed: Lower Time Bounds

More than a decade ago, Moller and Tofts published their seminal work on relating processes, which are annotated with lower time bounds, with respect to speed. Their paper has left open many questions regarding the semantic theory for the suggested bisimulation– based faster–than preorder, the MT–preorder, which have not been addressed since. The encountered difficulties concern a general compo...

Why Is Simulation Harder than Bisimulation?

Why is deciding simulation preorder (and simulation equivalence) computationally harder than deciding bisimulation equivalence on almost all known classes of processes? We try to answer this question by describing two general methods that can be used to construct direct one-to-one polynomial-time reductions from bisimulation equivalence to simulation preorder (and simulation equivalence). These...

Scalable Minimization Algorithm for Partial Bisimulation

We present an efficient algorithm for computing the partial bisimulation preorder and equivalence for labeled transitions systems. The partial bisimulation preorder lies between simulation and bisimulation, as only a part of the set of actions is bisimulated, whereas the rest of the actions are simulated. Computing quotients for simulation equivalence is more expensive than for bisimulation equ...

A semantic theory for value-passing processes based on the late approach

A general class of languages for value-passing calculi based on the late semantic approach is defined and a concrete instantiation of the general syntax is given. This is a modification of the standard CCS according to the late approach. Three kinds of semantics are given for this language. First a Plotkin style operational semantics by means of an applicative labelled transition system is intr...
