Abstract
In this paper problems of process interactions in a distributed system are discussed. Some basic process structures are analyzed and it is shown which communication and synchronization elements are necessary to realize a certain structure. These basic structures can be used to build any complex distributed process system.
The Distributed Data Base Management System POREL is taken as an example to show how to use the proposed model in a rather complex system with distributed control.
