Lecture Materials

Part 1
The provided lecture notes do not constitute a complete script. Proofs, examples, remarks etc. presented in the lecture might be cut in part or even completely. However, all important definitions and theorems can be found in the notes.

01 Introduction and basic definitions (notes)

02 Simulation, n-step transitions (notes)

03 Communication, periodicity (notes see above)
