{"product_id":"9789056991999","title":"Models for Concurrency","description":"Concurrent systems are generally understood in terms of behavioural notions. This book analyzes the subject in terms of events and their temporal relationship rather than on global states. It presents a comprehensive analysis of model theory applied to concurrent protocols, and seeks to provide a theory of concurrency that is based on mathematical foundations. The book is divided into three main sections. The first introduces the required concepts from model theory, details the structures that are used to model concurrency, gives an in-depth description and explanation of the semantics of a simple language that allows concurrent execution of sequential programs and deals with the question of resolving executions into higher-level and lower-level granularities. The second and third sections apply the theory developed to practical examples, and an expansion of the producer\/consumer problems with details of two solutions is given. The author also deals with message passing as oppposed to shared memory.","brand":"Uri Abraham","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47618915402046,"sku":"9789056991999","price":7572.77,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9789056991999.jpg?v=1707783179","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9789056991999","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
