Abstract
We offer a lattice-theoretic account of the problem of dynamic slicing for π-calculus, building on prior work in the sequential setting. For any particular run of a concurrent program, we exhibit a Galois connection relating forward slices of the initial configuration to backward slices of the terminal configuration. We prove that, up to lattice isomorphism, the same Galois connection arises for any causally equivalent execution, allowing an efficient concurrent implementation of slicing via a standard interleaving semantics. Our approach has been formalised in the dependentlytyped programming language Agda.
