A GUIDE TO COMMUNICATIONG SEQUENTIAL PROCESSES

Shan S. Kuo‚ Michael H. Linck and Sohrab Saddat

Abstract

This report is a tutorial introduction to a technique of programming which involves the communication between two or morn concurrently executing progresses. The notations of communication sequential processes (CSP), suggested by C.A.R. Hoare, are presented in detail. This report is chiefly intended for ‘educated scientists’ who are encountering the subject of parallel processing for the first time. For pedagogical reasons, a large number of examples of increasing conceptual complexity are given and solved throughout the report.
