          protected static <T extends Channel> T importChannel(java.lang.String channelId,
                                            java.lang.Class<T> channelClass)

    - #### instance

          protected static void instance(JacobRunnable concretion)

      Instantiation; the Java code `instance(new F(x,y,z))` is equivalent to `F(x,y,z)` in the process calculus.
      Parameters:
        `concretion` - the concretion of a process template

    - #### newChannel

          protected <T extends Channel> T newChannel(java.lang.Class<T> channelType)
                                          throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

      Throws:
