abstract= "This paper presents the central elements of a new dynamic
channel
leading towards a flexible CSP design suited for
high-level languages.
This channel is separated into three
models: a shared-memory channel, a
distributed channel and a
dynamic synchronisation layer. The models are
described
such that they may function as a basis for implementing a
CSP
library, though many of the common features known in
available CSP
libraries have been excluded from the models.
The SPIN model checker has
been used to check for the
presence of deadlocks, livelocks, starvation,
race
conditions and correct channel communication behaviour. The
three
models are separately verified for a variety of
different process
configurations. This verification is
performed automatically by doing an
exhaustive verification
of all possible transitions using SPIN. The
joint result of
the models is a single dynamic channel type which
supports
both local and distributed any-to-any communication. This
model
has not been verified and the large state-space may
make it unsuited for
exhaustive verification using a model
checker. An implementation of the
dynamic channel will be
able to change the internal synchronisation
mechanisms
on-the-fly, depending on the number of channel-ends
connected
or their location."
