dc.description.abstract	The principles put forward by Hoare' s CSP proposals have been a foundational influence in the development of distributed and parallel processing software and hardware. This paper provides a brief introduction to the notation, and reviews the influence of CSP on concurrent programming languages and formal methods. Samples of both the language principles and the mathematical theory of CSP are presented, the primary applications of the notation are discussed, and some introductory level references to the topic are suggested.	en
