Sequential Runs

We return to the basic definition of distributed ealgebras in 6.2.

A pure sequential run rho of an ealgebra A is a sequence [ S_n : n < kappa ] of states of A, where S0 is an initial state and every S_{n+1} is obtained from Sn by executing a move of an agent. The generalization to the case of external functions or external locations is relatively straightforward.
