The Universal Process
A universal process of a process calculus is one that, given the G\"{o}del index of a process of a certain type, produces a process equivalent to the encoded process. This paper demonstrates how universal processes can be formally defined and how a universal process of the value-passing calculu...

description | A universal process of a process calculus is one that, given the G\"{o}del
index of a process of a certain type, produces a process equivalent to the
encoded process. This paper demonstrates how universal processes can be
formally defined and how a universal process of the value-passing calculus can
be constructed. The existence of such a universal process in a process model
can be explored to implement higher order communications, security protocols,
and programming languages in the process model. A process version of the S-m-n
theorem is stated to showcase how to embed the recursion theory in a process
calculus. |
