Abstract
We describe a first order applicative language for the specification of deterministic systems of communicating computing agents Ia Kahn-MacQueen. Both the sequential and parallel interpreter we give are based on lazy evaluation, are demand driven and can handle infinite streams and non-terminating procedures. An equivalent least fixed-point semantics is then presented which neatly copes with the above features of the language, tt is worth noting that computations in our logical based model can be considered as format proofs, thus making format reasoning about programs easier.File in questo prodotto:
