Abstract

In this paper we prove some properties of combinational programs which is an improvement of the results presented in our previous work. We prove the derivation of loop-programs for combinational ones by both event semantics and stability semantics. We give a normal form for syntactically well-formed combinational programs, and show that for them Dimitrov’s multiple parallel approach and Zhu’s shared store parallel approach are equivalent.
