Abstract

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.
