Mathematical Models for the Semantics of Parallelism: Advanced School. Rome, Italy, September 24 - October 1, 1986. Proceedings

by Marisa Venturini Zilli (Editor)

The papers collected in this volume are most of the material presented at the Advanced School on Mathematical Models for the Semantics of Parallelism, held in Rome, September 24- October 1, 1986. The need for a comprehensive and clear presentation of the several semantical approaches to parallelism motivated the stress on mathematical models, by means of which comparisons among different approaches can also be performed in a perspicuous way.

Amazon 2008-11-24. Mother of God, this is the most boring thing I've read in months. I'll take what I've learned of CSP from reading C. A. R. Hoare and the π-calculus I've learned from Robin Milner, which is likely honestly quite enough modeling of concurrency for one lifetime, and hope I can scrape by. I got to page 31 and can't even use it to put off studying for tomorrow's final anymore. Back to John Shen's Modern Processor Design until tomorrow, hi-ho!
