{"product_id":"the-pi-calculus-davide-sangiorgi-9780521543279","title":"The Pi-Calculus: A Theory of Mobile Processes","description":"Mobile systems, whose components communicate and change their structure, now pervade the informational world and the wider world of which it is a part. The science of mobile systems is as yet immature, however. This book presents the pi-calculus, a theory of mobile systems. The pi-calculus provides a conceptual framework for understanding mobility, and mathematical tools for expressing systems and reasoning about their behaviours. The book serves both as a reference for the theory and as an extended demonstration of how to use pi-calculus to describe systems and analyse their properties. It covers the basic theory of pi-calculus, typed pi-calculi, higher-order processes, the relationship between pi-calculus and lambda-calculus, and applications of pi-calculus to object-oriented design and programming. The book is written at the graduate level, assuming no prior acquaintance with the subject, and is intended for computer scientists interested in mobile systems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Davide Sangiorgi, David Walker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521543274\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521543279\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 596\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.69h x 7.44w x 1.21d","brand":"Davide Sangiorgi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44321206206719,"sku":"9780521543279","price":79.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5c081085-696b-4095-aeb8-23e9c221a6a5.jpg?v=1696329676","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-pi-calculus-davide-sangiorgi-9780521543279","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
