In order to achieve higher levels of abstraction in architectural design, we investigate extensions to parallel program design based on the use of explicit state variables to accommodate the action-based discipline of interaction that is typical of architecture description languages. Our study focus on primitives that support non-determinism, choice and fairness in guarded-command based languages, and on refinement principles that are compositional with respect to interconnection.
