Abstract

The paper studies and compares two different approaches to model communication and cooperation. The approaches are team automata, a well-defined variant of communicating automata, and state-charts, heavily used in object-oriented modelling methods. The comparison yields interesting insights for modelling communication and cooperation. In particular, the differences between action-based, synchronous and state-based, asynchronous communication are elucidated.
