A Metalanguage for Guarded Iteration

open access: yes, 2018
Notions of guardedness serve to delineate admissible recursive definitions in various settings in a compositional manner. In recent work, we have introduced an axiomatic notion of guardedness in symmetric monoidal categories, which serves as a unifying ...

Modular Composition of Language Features through Extensions of Semantic Language Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Today, programming or specification languages are often extended in order to customize them for a particular application domain or to refine the language definition. The extension of a semantic model is often at the centre of such an extension.

IMP with exceptions over decorated logic [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2018
In this paper, we facilitate the reasoning about impure programming languages, by annotating terms with “decorations”that describe what computational (side) effect evaluation of a term may involve.

Classical logic, continuation semantics and abstract machines [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
One of the goals of this paper is to demonstrate that denotational semantics is useful for operational issues like implementation of functional languages by abstract machines.

McDowell and Sellars on Objective Purport

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract John McDowell has criticized Wilfrid Sellars on several occasions and over a number of years for his ‘non‐relational’ account of intentionality. This account is, according to McDowell, at least partly responsible for a ‘blind spot’ in Sellars's thinking: Sellars, allegedly, fails to see how objects or states of affairs in the external world ...

Theorem proving support in programming language semantics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We describe several views of the semantics of a simple programming language as formal documents in the calculus of inductive constructions that can be verified by the Coq proof system.

The Many-Worlds Calculus [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science
In this paper, we explore the interaction between two monoidal structures: a multiplicative one, for the encoding of pairing, and an additive one, for the encoding of choice.

Adventures in time and space [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2007
This paper investigates what is essentially a call-by-value version of PCF under a complexity-theoretically motivated type system. The programming formalism, ATR, has its first-order programs characterize the polynomial-time computable functions, and its

Uniquely human temporal thoughts

open access: yesMind &Language, EarlyView.
Life on Earth will eventually come to an end. The thought expressed in the previous sentence is about a point in time that is not known to the individual entertaining the thought. This paper is concerned with the nature of such temporal thoughts. We propose that the capacity to mentally represent thoughts about non‐specific temporal intervals is a ...

RedAlert: Determinacy Inference for Prolog [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper revisits the problem of determinacy inference addressing the problem of how to uniformly handle cut. To this end a new semantics is introduced for cut, which is abstracted to systematically derive a backward analysis that derives conditions ...
