Unifying Theories of Mobile Channels [PDF]
In this paper we present the denotational semantics for channel mobility in the Unifying Theories of Programming (UTP) semantics framework. The basis for the model is the UTP theory of reactive processes (precisely, the UTP semantics for Communicating ...

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Analyzing logic programs with dynamic scheduling [PDF]
Traditional logic programming languages, such as Prolog, use a fixed left-to-right atom scheduling rule. Recent logic programming languages, however, usually provide more flexible scheduling in which computation generally proceeds leftto- right but in ...
