Abstract

Matching systems were introduced by Carbone and Maffeis, and used to investigate the expressiveness of the pi-calculus with polyadic synchronisation. We adapt their definition and investigate matching systems for CCS, the pi-calculus and Mobile Ambients. We show among other results that the asynchronous pi-calculus with matching cannot be encoded (under certain conditions) in CCS with polyadic synchronisation of all finite levels.
