Abstract
Transition systems form thebasis of our process theory. In this and the subsequent chapters, we will introduce more and more refined variants of transition systems, until we correctly model our intuitive understanding of processes. Each construction is motivated by examples, and the technical details are furnished by definitions. With each step we will obtain mathematical objects which are more expressive, richer in structure, and nearer to our intuition of distributed, parallel processes.
