Abstract

Gamma is a minimal language based on conditional multiset rewriting. The virtues of this paradigm in terms of systematic program construction and design of programs for highly parallel machines have been demonstrated in previous papers. We introduce here sequential and parallel operators for combining Gamma programs and we study their properties. The main focus of the paper is to give conditions under which sequential composition can be transformed into parallel composition and vice versa. Such transformations are especially valuable for adapting Gamma programs for execution on a particular target architecture.
