Hi Matthias, 

I have been working on mechanizing CCS in HOL in the framework of my thesis.
Pure CCS (no value passing) has been formalized in HOL and you can find a 
report on this work in a technical report available via ftp, as said in the
attached message. I'm currently working on formalizing value-passing CCS
and the up-to-date report on this work is the paper "Value-Passing CCS in HOL"
that I presented at the HUG93 workshop in Vancouver. I can send you the revised 
version of this paper, if you like. 

Monica

  A Formalization of the Process Algebra CCS in Higher Order Logic

  Monica Nesi

  This paper describes a mechanization in higher order logic of the theory
  for a subset of Milner's CCS. The aim is to build a sound and effective tool
  to support verification and reasoning about process algebra specifications.
  To achieve this goal, the formal theory for pure CCS (no value passing)
  is defined in the interactive theorem prover HOL, and a set of proof tools,
  based on the algebraic presentation of CCS, is provided.


Monica
