Deciding Observational Congruence of Finite-State CCS Expressions by Rewriting
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a term rewriting approach to verify observational congruence between guarded recursive (finite-state) CCS expressions. Starting from the complete axiomatization of observational congruence for this subset of CCS, a non-terminating rewriting relation has been defined. This rewriting relation is co-canonical over a subclass of infinite derivations, structured fair derivations, which compute all the m-normal forms. The rewriting relation is shown to be complete with respect to the axiomatization by proving that every structured fair derivation computes a term that denotes an rz-normal process graph. The existence of a finite representation for o~-normal forms allows the definition of a rewritin9 strateoy that, in a finite number of rewriting steps, decides observational congruence of guarded recursive (finite-state) CCS expressions.

A Rewriting Strategy to Verify Observational Congruence
We are concerned with the verification of behavioural equivalences for CCS specifications. We consider their axiomatic presentations thus relying on a term rewriting approach to verify the equivalence. In this framework it happens that, while some behavioural equivalences do admit a fmite canonical term rewriting system, the completion of observational congruence diverges. In the paper we prese...
متن کاملObservant: An Annotated Term-Rewriting System for Deciding Observation Congruence
The use of term-rewriting systems (TRSs) is at the core of automated theorem proving (ATP). There are a number of methods whereby we can build terminating TRSs with full deduction power, with respect to some theory. Yet, there exist theories these techniques cannot handle, giving rise to a trade-oo between deduction power and termination. One such theory is the theory of observation congruence ...
متن کاملProbabilistic Barbed Congruence
This paper defines a probabilistic barbed congruence which turns out to coincide with observational equivalence in a probabilistic extension of CCS. Based on this coincidence result, we provide a sound and complete axiomatisation for the barbed congruence in a finite fragment of probabilistic CCS.
متن کاملA Fully Abstract Denotational Model for Observational Congruence
A domain theoretical denotational model is given for a simple sublanguage of CCS extended with divergence operator. The model is derived as an abstraction on a suitable notion of normal forms for labelled transition systems. It is shown to be fully abstract with respect to observational precongruence.
متن کاملDynamic congruence vs. progressing bisimulation for CCS
Weak Observational Congruence (woc) defined on CCS agents is not a bisimulation since it does not require two states reached by bisimilar computations of woc agents to be still woc, e.g. α.τ.β.nil and α.β.nil are woc but τ.β.nil and β.nil are not. This fact prevent us from characterizing CCS semantics (when τ is considered invisible) as a final algebra, since the semantic function would induce ...
