TL;DR

A model and information-theoretic measures which provide the complexity of concurrent programs are presented and the information content, risk ratio and the amount of intertasking activity contained in a concurrent program are measured in terms of the information in the corresponding graph representation.

Abstract

We present a model and information-theoretic measures (entropy) which provide the complexity of concurrent programs. The information content, risk ratio and the amount of intertasking activity contained in a concurrent program are measured in terms of the information in the corresponding graph representation.
