Abstract

We study trace and may-testing equivalences in the asynchronous versions of CCS and π-calculus. We start from the operational definition of the may-testing preorder and provide finitary and fully abstract trace-based characterizations for it, along with a complete in-equational proof system. We also touch upon two variants of this theory by first considering a more demanding equivalence notion (must-testing) and then a richer version of asynchronous CCS. The results throw light on the difference between synchronous and asynchronous communication and on the weaker testing power of asynchronous observations.
