Abstract Interpretation as a Programming Language [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2013 In David Schmidt's PhD work he explored the use of denotational semantics as a programming language. It was part of an effort to not only treat formal semantics as specifications but also as interpreters and input to compiler generators.

Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2006 Denotational semantics can be based on algebras with additional structure (order, metric, etc.) which makes it possible to interpret recursive specifications.

Decorated proofs for computational effects: States [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2012 The syntax of an imperative language does not mention explicitly the state, while its denotational semantics has to mention it. In this paper we show that the equational proofs about an imperative language may hide the state, in the same way as the ...

Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2013 We introduce a functional calculus with simple syntax and operational semantics in which the calculi introduced so far in the Curry-Howard correspondence for Classical Logic can be faithfully encoded.

Ticking clocks as dependent right adjoints: Denotational semantics for clocked type theory [PDF]
Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2020 Clocked Type Theory (CloTT) is a type theory for guarded recursion useful for programming with coinductive types, allowing productivity to be encoded in types, and for reasoning about advanced programming language features using an abstract form of step ...

Semantics-based Automated Web Testing [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2015 We present TAO, a software testing tool performing automated test and oracle generation based on a semantic approach. TAO entangles grammar-based test generation with automated semantics evaluation using a denotational semantics framework.

A Simple Semantics and Static Analysis for Stack Inspection [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2013 The Java virtual machine and the .NET common language runtime feature an access control mechanism specified operationally in terms of run-time stack inspection. We give a denotational semantics in "eager" form, and show that it is equivalent to the "lazy"

A Model of Cooperative Threads [PDF]
Logical Methods in Computer Science, 2010 We develop a model of concurrent imperative programming with threads. We focus on a small imperative language with cooperative threads which execute without interruption until they terminate or explicitly yield control.

Modeling Simply-Typed Lambda Calculi in the Category of Finite Vector Spaces [PDF]
Scientific Annals of Computer Science, 2014 In this paper we use finite vector spaces (finite dimension, over finite fields) as a non-standard computational model of linear logic. We first define a simple, finite PCF-like lambda-calculus with booleans, and then we discuss two finite models, one ...
