A typed calculus of synchronous processes

Steven Gay, Rajagopal Nagarajan

Open publisher page 9 citations

Abstract

Proposes a typed calculus of synchronous processes based on the structure of interaction categories. Our aim has been to develop a calculus for concurrency that is canonical in the sense that the typed /spl lambda/-calculus is canonical for functional computation. We show strong connections between syntax, logic and semantics, analogous to the familiar correspondence between the typed /spl lambda/-calculus, intuitionistic logic and Cartesian closed categories.
