Communicating Process Architectures 2009
Communicating Process
Architectures 2009 will start on the evening of Sunday 1st. November, through
to lunchtime on 4th. November at the Technische Universiteit Eindhoven
in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. The conference will run in its normal style
(a single stream of refereed papers during the day and fringe events
in the evenings). This year, however, we shall be part of
Formal Methods Week 2009
where registration for CPA also gives access to the sessions of other
conferences, tutorials and workshops running simultaenously –
follow their sidebar link to "Schedule" for the outline timetable.
Welcome!
WoTUG is a forum set up to support those applying the CSP
model of parallel processing. You will find on this site articles and information
that can help you design and build concurrent software and hardware systems that
really work, day in, day out, without any need to spend man-years of debugging
effort.
- Information on CSP, the mathematical basis of our work
- Our papers, the distilled results of our work
- The KRoC retargettable occam compiler

The Abstract below is from a paper in our database:
HCSP: Extending CSP for Codesign and Shared Memory
By Adrian E. Lawrence
HCSP is a variant of CSP adapted to capture the semantics of hardware compilation, among other purposes. It extends CSP in several ways; it includes priority; events can be combined; new synchronization constructors are introduced; and state is explicitly modelled. Including state permits the treatment of shared memory as well as message passing systems. A possible denotational semantics is included here ths allowing proper treatment of such systems. Although most of these extensions were motivated by the needs of hardware compilation, HCSP can be applied more widely including software and thus can form the foundation of a codesign language. HCSP is an extension of CSPP; familiarity of CSPP is assumed here.
