Overcoming heterophobia: modeling concurrency in heterogeneous systems

Abstract
We describe a framework where formal models can be rigorously defined and compared, and their interconnec- tions can be unambiguously specified. We usetrace algebra and trace structure algebra to provide the underlying math- ematical machinery. We believe that this framework will be essential to provide the foundations of an intermediate format that will provide the Metropolis infrastructure with a formal mechanism for interoperability among tools and specification methods.
