abstract= "One of the great strengths of CSP based concurrent
programming languages
(such as occam) is the support
provided to the programmer in avoiding the
creation of
erroneous programs.
One such support \–
\textlessi\textgreaterparallel usage
checking\textless/i\textgreater \–
detects program
behaviours that may leave a variable in an
unpredictable
state.
Current implementations of this check
are safe but can lead to
inefficient program
implementations.
In some cases, a simple
program
transformation can be used to demonstrate the safety
of programs that would
otherwise fail existing tests.
By
presenting a simple (but generic) example,
I will show that
using such a transformation allows the creation of
more
efficient programs."
