Does 'unfold' mean 'happen' here? Or like unfolding a pocket?
The combination of the two steps is called a round. Note that we do not, in general, place restrictions on the amount of computation a process does in order to compute the values of its message-generation and state-transition functions. Also note that the model presented here is deterministic, in the sense that the message-generation function and the state-transition function are (single-valued) functions. Thus, given a particular collection of start states, the computation unfolds in a unique way.
