• A theory of traces of computations has emerged within the field of coalgebra, via finality in Kleisli categories. In concurrency theory, traces are traditionally obtained from executions, by projecting away states. These traces and executions are sequences and will be called “thin”. The coalgebraic approach gives rise to both “thin” and “fat” traces/executions, where in the “fat” case the structure of computations is preserved. This distinction between thin and fat will be introduced first. It is needed for a theory of schedulers in a coalgebraic setting, of which we only present the very basic definitions and results.
