A denotational semantics for equilibrium logic [PDF]

open access: yesTheory and Practice of Logic Programming, 2015
AbstractIn this paper we provide an alternative semantics for Equilibrium Logic and its monotonic basis, the logic of Here-and-There (also known as Gödel'sG3logic) that relies on the idea ofdenotationof a formula, that is, a function that collects the set of models of that formula.

Quantum Turing automata [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2014
A denotational semantics of quantum Turing machines having a quantum control is defined in the dagger compact closed category of finite dimensional Hilbert spaces.

Inductive Definition and Domain Theoretic Properties of Fully Abstract [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A construction of fully abstract typed models for PCF and PCF^+ (i.e., PCF + "parallel conditional function"), respectively, is presented. It is based on general notions of sequential computational strategies and wittingly consistent non-deterministic ...

METRIC DENOTATIONAL SEMANTICS FOR REMOTE PROCESS DESTRUCTION AND CLONING

open access: yesStudia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai: Series Informatica, 2017
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]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2010
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.

A Provenance Tracking Model for Data Updates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2015
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]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science
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]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2010
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 ...

Operational and denotational semantics of prolog

open access: yesThe Journal of Logic Programming, 1987
A Vienna Definition Language operational semantics of PROLOG, which includes the cut, the database, and the extra-logical operations, is presented. This semantics serves as the basis for deriving a denotational-continuation-style semantics of PROLOG through a systematic transformation of the operational semantics by a method described by Berry.
