Abstract Specifying budgets and deadlines using a process algebra like CSP requires an explicit notion of time. The tock -CSP encoding embeds rich flexible approach for modelling discrete-time behaviours with powerful tool support. It uses event , interpreted to mark passage Analysis, however, has traditionally used the standard semantics CSP, which is inadequate reasoning about timed refinemen...

A new chiral stationary phase (CSP) was prepared by attachment of macrocyclic glycopeptide antibiotic eremomycin to the epoxy-activated silica under mild conditions. In contrast to CSP with immobilized vancomycin, which is a close structural analogue of eremomycin, the prepared CSP reveals high enantioselectivity for separation of amino acids enantiomers. It was demonstrated by the example of r...

We first define a mapping from CSP to many-valued SAT which allows to solve CSP instances with many-valued SAT solvers. Second, we define a new many-valued resolution rule and prove that it is refutation complete for many-valued CNF formulas and, moreover, enforces CSP (i, j)-consistency when applied to a many-valued SAT encoding of a CSP. Instances of our rule enforce well-known local consiste...

We present a failure-divergence model for CSP following the concepts of [BR 85]. Its formal representation within higher order logic in the theorem prover Isabelle/HOL [Pau 94] revealed an error in the basic definition of CSP concerning the treatment of the termination symbol tick. A corrected model has been formally proven consistent with Isabelle/HOL. Moreover, the changed version maintains t...

The effect of hepatic dysfunction. defined as abnormal serum bilirubin level. on oral cyclosporine (CSP) pharmacokinetics was examined in 28 marrow transplant patients who received CSP for prophylaxis of graft-v-host disease. Serum CSP concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay. Forty-one concentration-time courses were studied. divided among patients with no (< 1 .2 mg/dL). mild (1.2 to ...

This paper addresses the issue of state sharing in CSP‖B specifications: B machines controlled by various CSP parts are supposed not to refer to, share or modify the same state space. However, some kinds of B state sharing can be allowed without creating inconsistencies in CSP‖B specifications. To achieve this, we present an approach where inconsistencies in state sharing can be identified by t...
