A Denotational Semantics for SPARC TSO [PDF]
The SPARC TSO weak memory model is defined axiomatically, with a non-compositional formulation that makes modular reasoning about programs difficult.

Denotational Semantics of the Simplified Lambda-Mu Calculus and a New Deduction System of Classical Type Theory [PDF]
Classical (or Boolean) type theory is the type theory that allows the type inference (σ \to \bot) \to \bot => σ (the type counterpart of double-negation elimination), where σ is any type and \bot is absurdity type.

On the equivalence of game and denotational semantics for the probabilistic mu-calculus [PDF]
The probabilistic (or quantitative) modal mu-calculus is a fixed-point logic de- signed for expressing properties of probabilistic labeled transition systems (PLTS).

Denotational Semantics of A User-Oriented, Domain-Specific Language [PDF]
This paper presents the formal definition of a domain-specific language, named Pantagruel, following the methodology proposed by David Schmidt for language development.

METRIC DENOTATIONAL SEMANTICS FOR REMOTE PROCESS DESTRUCTION AND CLONING
We present a denotational semantics designed with continuations for a concurrent language providing a mechanism for synchronous communication, together with constructions for process creation, remote process destruction and cloning.

Smart Choices and the Selection Monad [PDF]
Describing systems in terms of choices and their resulting costs and rewards offers the promise of freeing algorithm designers and programmers from specifying how those choices should be made; in implementations, the choices can be realized by ...

Quantum Alternation: Prospects and Problems [PDF]
We propose a notion of quantum control in a quantum programming language which permits the superposition of finitely many quantum operations without performing a measurement.

A Denotational Semantics for First-Order Logic [PDF]
In Apt and Bezem [AB99] (see cs.LO/9811017) we provided a computational interpretation of first-order formulas over arbitrary interpretations. Here we complement this work by introducing a denotational semantics for first-order logic.

A Denotational Semantics for Communicating Unstructured Code [PDF]
An important property of programming language semantics is that they should be compositional. However, unstructured low-level code contains goto-like commands making it hard to define a semantics that is compositional. In this paper, we follow the ideas
