Abstract

Considering explicit schedulers of nondeterministic programs, we propose a notion of cycles in infinite choice sequences and characterize fair sequences as being composed of cycles. We demonstrate that proof of fairness reduces to showing the existence of such cycles. Guarded commands are used to represent the scheduled actions and a proof technique is presented to discover conspiracies among them.
