Plumbing: circular connections

Types

loopCompF :: F ((r2l ⊕ inl) ⊕ (l2r ⊕ inr)) ((l2r ⊕ outl) ⊕ (r2l ⊕ outr)) ->
             F (inl ⊕ inr) (outl ⊕ outr)
loopThroughBothF :: F (r2l ⊕ inl) (l2r ⊕ outl) ->
                    F (l2r ⊕ inr) (r2l ⊕ outr) -> F (inl ⊕ inr) (outl ⊕ outr)

Description

loopCompF is a symmetric version of loopCompThroughRightF. When applied to a parallel composition of two fudgets it allows the fudgets to communicate both with the outside world and with each other.

Equalities

  loopThroughBothSP sp1 sp2 = loopCompSP (sp1 >+< sp2)
