摘要
If d and e are increasing functions in a partial order, then the fixed points on their functional composition (d {ring operator} e) are just the points that are fixed for both d and e. The same is true of a form of parallel composition (fx V gx), using the least upper bound V in the partial order. This fact may be useful in cases when fixed points are computed by iteration, with arbitrary mixture of sequential and parallel composition. © 1990.
