| abstract = We introduce iposets - posets with interfaces - equipped with a novel gluing
composition along interfaces and the standard parallel composition. We study
their basic algebraic properties as well as the hierarchy of gluing-parallel
posets generated from singletons by finitary applications of the two
compositions. We show that not only series-parallel posets, but also
interval orders, which seem more interesting for modeling concurrent and
distributed systems, can be generated, but not all posets. Generating posets
is also important for constructing free algebras for concurrent semi-rings
and Kleene algebras that allow compositional reasoning about such systems.
