Summary on Grant Application Form
The overall aim of this research is to develop and refine mathematical models for concurrent computation, and in particular for features arising from locations, distribution and mobility of both data and computation. Such models provide a powerful way to explore the properties of these features, and cast light on the nature of distributed computation. The project comprises three interdependent strands: to refine existing models for process calculi; to investigate new mathematical constructions to model location, mobility and distribution; and to extract novel logical systems and reasoning methods from such models.
