Abstract

When extending timed process algebra with discrete stochastic time, typical standard notions like time additivity are hard to preserve in the presence of the race condition. We propose context-sensitive interpolation as a restricted form of time additivity to accommodate the extension with stochastic time. We also present a stochastic process algebra featuring an explicit account of two types of race conditions in terms of conditional random variables. The approach enables compositional modeling, a non-trivial expansion law, and explicit manipulation of maximal progress.
