Service-Oriented Synthesis of Distributed and Concurrent Protocol Specifications

Algorithm 1

The synthesis algorithm.
Synthesis algorithm. Derivation of concurrent protocol specification from a service specification.
Input: EFSM-based service specification.
Output: Concurrent FSM-based PE-SPECs.
Steps:
(1) apply the sequential-based protocol synthesis method introduced in Saleh and Probert [4],
(2) apply the From_Sequential_To_Concurrent_PEs procedure given in Algorithm 2 to obtain the concurrent PE-SPECs.
