Abstract

The usefulness of formalisms for the description and the analysis of reactive systems is closely related to the underlying notion of behavioral equivalence. Such an equivalence should formally identify behaviors that are informally indistinguishable from each other, and at the same time distinguish between behaviors that are informally different.
