Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0726.00019.] The semantics of synchronous schemes can be defined in feedback theories (introduced also in \textit{M. Bartha} [Theor. Comput. Sci. 55, 265-289 (1987; Zbl 0676.68042)]). The variety of feedback theories is in close connection with that of iteration theories [cf. \textit{S. L. Bloom} and \textit{Z. Ésik}, J. Comput. Syst. Sci. 31, 375-393 (1985; Zbl 0613.68013)], which has many relevant subclasses well-known from the literature. To enlight feedback theories from the point of view of semantics, we define a large subclass of this variety, the class of feedback algebras induced by ordinary pointed \(\Sigma\)-algebras. It will be shown that feedback algebras provide an adequate semantics to the step-by-step behaviour of synchronous flowchart schemes.
