Behavioural Abstraction in TCCS

In this paper, we extend the theory of TCCS, the authors' Temporal Calculus of Communicating Systems, with a behavioural congruence which abstracts away internal communications. An equational theory for this equivalence is presented, and proven to be complete over the sublanguage of finite sequential agents.
