Abstract

The paper consists of two parts. The first one deals with the net formalism (OS-nets) to specify concurrent processes with synchronization. Some results of deadlock detection for OS-nets based on analysing the net structure are established.

However, an algebraic approach to specify concurrent processes with synchronization and analyse their properties seems more promising and convenient. The second part of the paper is devoted to the algebra of finite concurrent processes with synchronization and its axiomatization.
