The gas in the piston cylinder assembly is a closed system. The only work involved is boundary work. The thermodynamic process is a polytropic process following certain relation between pressure and volume. Work done can be determined by finding the area under the pressure-volume diagram.
A closed system is a quantity of matter surrounded by a fixed or movable boundary. It can only have work and heat transfer with its surroundings, there cannot be any mass transfer with the surroundings.
An ideal thermodynamic process whose deviation from the thermodynamic equilibrium is infinitesimal at any point of time during the process is called a quasistatic process.
Any quasi-equilibrium expansion or compression process can be described by the relation,
