In nature and chemistry the interactions among elements often form bonds and among them covalent bonds are relevant, involving the sharing of electrons. Another relevant and compelling facet of calculi modelling covalent bonds is that certain steps in reactions are the result of concerting different activities, possibly reversing some of them. Starting from a calculus for covalent bonds, we investigate on how it can be done in a compositional fashion and how it can be encoded in suitable Petri nets. The outcome gives us a compositional covalent bond calculus and a truly distributed implementation. On these results it is possible to build a behavioural equivalence among terms.Fil: Melgratti, Hernan Claudio. Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas.
