Adhesive categories

S Lack, P Sobociński - … Conference on Foundations of Software Science …, 2004‏ - Springer
We introduce adhesive categories, which are categories with structure ensuring that
pushouts along monomorphisms are well-behaved. Many types of graphical structures used …

The kell calculus: A family of higher-order distributed process calculi

A Schmitt, JB Stefani - Global Computing: IST/FET International Workshop …, 2005‏ - Springer
This paper presents the Kell calculus, a family of distributed process calculi, parameterized
by languages for input patterns, that is intended as a basis for studying component-based …

Behavioral theory for mobile ambients

M Merro, FZ Nardelli - Journal of the ACM (JACM), 2005‏ - dl.acm.org
We study a behavioral theory of Mobile Ambients, a process calculus for modelling mobile
agents in wide-area networks, focussing on reduction barbed congruence. Our contribution …

The seal calculus

G Castagna, J Vitek, FZ Nardelli - Information and Computation, 2005‏ - Elsevier
The Seal Calculus is a process language for describing mobile computation. Threads and
resources are tree structured; the nodes thereof correspond to agents, the units of mobility …

Basic observables for a calculus for global computing

R De Nicola, D Gorla, R Pugliese - Information and Computation, 2007‏ - Elsevier
We develop the semantic theory of a foundational language for modelling applications over
global computers whose interconnection structure can be explicitly manipulated. Together …

[PDF][PDF] Deriving process congruences from reaction rules

P Sobocinski - 2004‏ - ioc.ee
This thesis is concerned with the development of a theory which, given a formalism with a
reduction semantics, allows the derivation of a canonical labelled transition system on which …

Deriving bisimulation congruences: 2-categories vs precategories

V Sassone, P Sobociśki - … of Software Science and Computation Structures …, 2003‏ - Springer
G-relative pushouts (GRPOs) have recently been proposed by the authors as a new
foundation for Leifer and Milner's approach to deriving labelled bisimulation congruences …

Bisimulation proof methods for mobile ambients

M Merro, FZ Nardelli - International Colloquium on Automata, Languages …, 2003‏ - Springer
We study the behavioural theory of Cardelli and Gordon's Mobile Ambients. We give an LTS
