By generalising from pattern matching to unification, interaction becomes symmetrical, with information flowing in both directions. This provides a natural language for describing any form of exchange or trade. Many popular process calculi can be encoded in concurrent pattern calculus. %G English %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01054456/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01054456/file/03230244.pdf %L hal-01054456 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01054456 %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-AICT-323 %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC1 %~ IFIP-TC2 %~ IFIP-TCS %~ IFIP-WG2-2 %~ IFIP-WCC %~ IFIP-2010
