Priority is a frequently used feature of many computational systems. In this paper we study the expressiveness of two process algebras enriched with different priority mechanisms. In particular, we consider a finite (i.e. recursion-free) fragment of asynchronous CCS with global priority (FAP, for short) and Phillips’ CPG (CCS with local priority), and we contrast their expressive power with that of two non-prioritised calculi, namely theπ-calculus and its broadcast-based version, called bπ. We prove, by means of leader-election-based separation results, that there exists no encoding of FAP intoπ-Calculus or CPG, under certain conditions. Moreover, we single out another problem in distributed computing, we call thelast man standingproblem (LMS for short), that better reveals the gap between the two prioritised calculi above and the two non prioritised ones, by proving that there exists no parallel-preserving encoding of the prioritised calculi into the non-prioritised calculi retaining anysincere(complete but partially correct, i.e., admitting divergence or premature termination) semantics.
