Abstract

Data types are an important design tool because they allow freedom of abstraction. Thus, they are useful for constructing large software systems, including operating systems. It is shown that when dealing with problems of concurrency, the use of path expressions, which are associated with data, makes the task of verification simpler than when the synchronization conditions are associated with programs.
