    Abstract

    We show in a uniform setting the crucial role of compactness in the theory of the Smyth powerdomain of streams. The topological notion of compactness is characterized in an order-theoretical manner, involving a notion of bounded sets. We obtain general results on the continuity of operators, and consider applications as diverse as interleaving, hiding and stream programming operators.
