This paper reports an educational exercise in using the π-calculus to model components of an electronic marketplace. Specifically, we are looking at the Spanish fish market, since we have participated in the construction of several simulations of this scenario over the past 18 months and now feel it is time to prepare a more precise description. Our objectives in doing this were (i) to gain familiarity with the π-calculus (ii) to find out whether the π-calculus might provide a suitable basis for defining the behaviour of components in an electronic marketplace. It is not our intention at this stage to establish the correctness of the components or the completeness of the model: these will be addressed later using existing tools and by developing new ones. In summary, this is an experience report.
