Abstract

Compensating CSP (cCSP) extends CSP for specification and verification of long running transactions. The original cCSP is a modest extension to a subset of CSP that does not consider non-deterministic choice, synchronized composition, and recursion. There are a few further extensions. However, it remains a challenge to develop a fixed-point theory of process refinement in cCSP. This paper provides a complete solution to this problem and develops a theory of cCSP, corresponding to the theory of CSP, so that the verification techniques and their tools, such as FDR, can be extended for compensating processes.
