Abstract
This paper describes an algebraic structure which allows to define an abstract framework for communication in distributed systems. Using this structure we introduce an equivalence relation; the quotient induced by this equivalence relation preserves the initial algebraic structure. Our results represent a starting point in abstract investigation of the communication between processes, complementing the achievements of the process algebras.
