Extensional and Intensional Semantics of Bounded and Unbounded Nondeterminism [PDF]
We give extensional and intensional characterizations of functional programs with nondeterminism: as structure preserving functions between biorders, and as nondeterministic sequential algorithms on ordered concrete data structures which compute them.

Programming Denotational Semantics II [PDF]
The Denotational Semantics of a small programming language is coded into Algol-68 to give an interpreter. The Semantics incorporates many of the notions of Standard Semantics including declarations, declaration continuations, final answers and stores or memory which are used to define block structuring, output and parameterless procedures. This extends

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.

Semantics of a Typed Algebraic Lambda-Calculus [PDF]
Algebraic lambda-calculi have been studied in various ways, but their semantics remain mostly untouched. In this paper we propose a semantic analysis of a general simply-typed lambda-calculus endowed with a structure of vector space.

Reversible Barbed Congruence on Configuration Structures [PDF]
A standard contextual equivalence for process algebras is strong barbed congruence. Configuration structures are a denotational semantics for processes in which one can define equivalences that are more discriminating, i.e.

Semantics, Specification Logic, and Hoare Logic of Exact Real Computation [PDF]
We propose a simple imperative programming language, ERC, that features arbitrary real numbers as primitive data type, exactly. Equipped with a denotational semantics, ERC provides a formal programming language-theoretic foundation to the algorithmic ...

On Linear Information Systems [PDF]
Scott's information systems provide a categorically equivalent, intensional description of Scott domains and continuous functions. Following a well established pattern in denotational semantics, we define a linear version of information systems ...

A Provenance Tracking Model for Data Updates [PDF]
For data-centric systems, provenance tracking is particularly important when the system is open and decentralised, such as the Web of Linked Data. In this paper, a concise but expressive calculus which models data updates is presented.

QWIRE Practice: Formal Verification of Quantum Circuits in Coq [PDF]
We describe an embedding of the QWIRE quantum circuit language in the Coq proof assistant. This allows programmers to write quantum circuits using high-level abstractions and to prove properties of those circuits using Coq's theorem proving features. The
