....; d ; eihb ; fi) Below it proves useful to have available a proof principle that we call induction on the weight of a statement or on the weight of a resumption, weight induction for short. The systematic use of weights to support inductive arguments in this setting is due to Van Breugel. See [Bre94]. The weight function that we introduce for this purpose provides a bound for the number of rules and axioms that are applied in a bottom up construction of the derivation tree for a transition. This explains, e.g. that we will have wgt(x) wgt(D(x) where the procedure body D(x) depends on ....

A main difference, however, is that we need to apply a closure operator to their definitions in order to ensure well definedness. See, for a discussion, Section 6:3 in [Bre94]. 6.15. Definition.

....a compactly branching metric labelled transition system and the linearize operator abstr can be defined as fix ( Upsilon ) The branching domain introduced by De Bakker and the author in Definition 4.5 of [BB93] can also be linearized in this way. For details we refer the reader to Chapter 10 of [Bre94b] (see Definition 10.4.14 and Proposition 10.4.15) 4 Two branch operators The two branch operators branch 0 and branch 1 are both defined by means of the theory of (metric) labelled transition systems. As in the previous section, we view the linear domain as a labelled transition system. This ....

....(the labels are not provided with any additional structure) Neither Brauer nor Kent uses the topological machines to give (operational) semantics as we have done in this paper. This paper only describes part of a theory of metric labelled transition systems developed in the author s thesis [Bre94b]. We have shown how to generalize finitely branching to compactly branching and nonexpansive. Similarly image finite can be generalized to image compact and binonexpansive. The semantic models we have considered in this paper are linear: they assign to each configuration a set of sequences. By ....
....in this paper are linear: they assign to each configuration a set of sequences. By means of (metric) labelled transition systems one can also define branching operational semantic models. These semantic models assign to each configuration a tree like object. The details are provided in [Bre94b]. For an overview we refer the reader to [Bre94a] If we replace nonexpansiveness by continuity (in Definition 1.6) all results still hold. In that case the induced operational semantic models are continuous (and not nonexpansive in general) In several applications of the theory the ....

....of denotations of statements in the configurations causes that the transition system is not finitely branching a property which is usually exploited in relating different semantics. By providing a metric on the configurations we obtain a metric transition system (see Van Breugel s thesis [Bre94]) This metric transition system is compactly branching: each configuration has a compact set of outgoing transitions. This fact is used in relating the operational and denotational semantics via the intermediate semantics. Banach s fixed point theorem [Ban22] plays a crucial role in the present ....
