Zusammenfassung:Abstract: "Elementary (first-order) and non-elementary (set- theoretic) aspects of the largest bisimulation are considered, with a view towards analyzing operational semantics from the perspective of predicate logic. The notion of a bisimulation is employed in two distinct ways: (i) as an extensional notion of equivalence on programs (or processes) generalizing input/output equivalence (at a cost exceeding [pi][superscript 1][subscript 1] over certain transition predicates computable in log space), and (ii) as a tool for analyzing the dependence of transitions on data (which can be shown to be elementary or non-elementary, depending on the formulation of the transitions). These ways contrast not only in the logical dependence they uncover, but also in their use of sets as abstractions describing mechanical computation."
