Disentangling Parallelism and Interference in Game Semantics [PDF]
Game semantics is a denotational semantics presenting compositionally the computational behaviour of various kinds of effectful programs. One of its celebrated achievement is to have obtained full abstraction results for programming languages with a ...

Conjoined Comparison and Variation in Degree Semantics
ABSTRACT Conjoined comparisons, consisting of two clauses containing antonymous or positive‐negative predicate pairs, are among the most common comparison construction types in the world's languages. As research on degree constructions from a cross‐linguistic perspective has increased, so too has the number of studies focused on conjoined comparisons ...

Facilitating modular property-preserving extensions of programming languages [PDF]
We will explore an approach to modular programming language descriptions and extensions in a denotational style. Based on a language core, language features are added stepwise on the core. Language features can be described separated from each other in

Leveraging Context for Perceptual Prediction Using Word Embeddings
Abstract Word embeddings derived from large language corpora have been successfully used in cognitive science and artificial intelligence to represent linguistic meaning. However, there is continued debate as to how well they encode useful information about the perceptual qualities of concepts.

An algebraic basis for specifying and enforcing access control in security systems [PDF]
Security services in a multi-user environment are often based on access control mechanisms. Static aspects of an access control policy can be formalised using abstract algebraic models.

How the Rejection of Incompatible Speech Acts Transforms Human Cognition
Abstract Engaging with the literature on transformative conceptions of rationality, I argue for the following position on the way reason transforms human cognition: when the capacity for knowing that one ought to do something is directed at one's own speech acts, an initially domain‐specific and practical grasp of genus/species relations – manifest in ...

ETHICS FOR ARTIFICIAL HISTORIANS
ABSTRACT Artificial historians do not need to have intentions to complete actions or to solve problems. Consequently, a revised approach to the ethics of history is needed. An approach to ethics for artificial historians can be proposed through the recognition of historiographical logic, which is a hybrid of modal, propositional, and erotetic (question‐

Alternation in Quantum Programming: From Superposition of Data to Superposition of Programs [PDF]
We extract a novel quantum programming paradigm - superposition of programs - from the design idea of a popular class of quantum algorithms, namely quantum walk-based algorithms.

Decorated proofs for computational effects: Exceptions
We define a proof system for exceptions which is close to the syntax for exceptions, in the sense that the exceptions do not appear explicitly in the type of any expression.

A constructive denotational semantics for Kahn networks in Coq
Semantics of programming languages and interactive environments for the development of proofs and programs are two important aspects of Gilles Kahn's scientific contributions.
