Book Description
Communication and Concurrency develops a general calculus of concurrent programming from first principles. The book provides an understanding of concurrency through a very small number of primitive ideas and illustrates how these ideas apply to hardware and software, to specification and implementation. The material is organised to form the basis of a practical course.
Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
This book is a valuable review of the description and verification of concurrent systems. As one of the leading theoretical computer scientists in Britain, Robin Miller has produced an excellent book containing a well- judged mixture of theory and practical applications. Includes information on Modelling Communication, Equational Laws and Their Applications, Strong Bisimulation and Strong Equivalence, and more. This book forms a solid base for academic courses and a valuable reference for practitioners.
