Abstract: The behavioral theory of processes is one of the core research contents of process calculus,which focuses on discussing behavioral equivalence or simulation relationships between processes.The Covariant-Contravariant simulation (CC-simulation) is the extension of the (bi)simulation,which distinguishes the types of actions and expresses the different requirement of active,passive and communication actions in refinement relationships between specifications and implementations.The (pre)congruence and axiomatization of behavioral relationships are the concentrated expression of the algebraic features of process calculus,which are essential for the analysis and reasoning of specifications and implementations.In general,the proof of behavioral (pre)congruence and the construction of axiomatic systems need to be based on the Structural Operational Semantics (SOS) of different process calculus systems.In order to avoid duplication of labor in these kinds of research work,the academia has carried out research on the meta-theory of the generalized SOS rule formats,and GSOS is one of the format that have been widely studied.Based on the consideration of action types,this paper extends the GSOS rule format for CC-simulation,proposes CC-GSOS rule format,and proves that the CC-simulation is a precongruent relation relative to CC-GSOS operators,gives a general method for constructing axiomatic system for CC-simulation which is sound and complete.

Key words: Completeness, Covariant-contravariant simulation, GSOS, Process calculus, Soundness, Structural operational semantics (SOS)
