On the Parallel Composition for True Concurrency
For insight into the parallel composition for true concurrency, we recall the axiomatization of the parallel composition modulo truly concurrent behavioral equivalences as the sidelights of truly concurrent process algebra APTC. We prove that: (1) There is a finite sound and complete axiomatization of the parallel composition modulo pomset, step and hp-bisimulations, without any auxiliary operators. (2) There does not exist a finite sound and complete axiomatization of the parallel composition modulo hhp-bisimulation, without any auxiliary operator. (3) There is a finite sound and complete axiomatization of the parallel composition modulo pomset, step, hp-. and hhp-bisimulations, with the auxiliary left parallel composition and communication merge.
