It is often desirable to describe the interface of an implementation system at a different (usually more detailed) level of abstraction to the interface of the relevant specification. This calls for a relation aimed at formalising the notion that a process is an acceptable implementation of another target process in the event that they possess different interfaces. This paper formulates a suitable implementation relation between the observable behaviours of the implementation and the target process using CSP. Interface difference and bridging is modelled by endowing the implementation relation with parameters, called extraction patterns, instrumental to interpreting implementation behaviour as target behaviour.
