Abstract

In this paper, we use PAFAS (Process Algebra for FasterAsynchronous Systems) to compare the worst-case efficiency of three bounded-buffer implementations: Fifo, Pipeand Buff. Fifo implements the buffer as a first-in-first-outqueue, Pipe implements the buffer as a pipeline queue andBuff implements the buffer as circular queue in an array.We contrast our results with those in [2] and [10] whichalso aim at comparing the three implementations of thebounded buffer according to some efficiency measure.
