Dynamic structural operational semantics
We introduce Dynamic SOS as a framework for describing semantics of programming languages that include dynamic software upgrades, for upgrading software code during run-time. Dynamic SOS (DSOS) is built on top of the Modular SOS of P. Mosses, with an underlying category theory formalization.

AbstractThe present work achieves a mathematical, in particularsyntax-independent, formulation ofdynamicsandintensionalityof computation in terms ofgamesandstrategies. Specifically, we givegame semanticsof a higher-order programming language that distinguishes programmes with the same value yet different algorithms (or intensionality) and thehiding ...

Part-introducing 'percent' in English
Two uses of English percent, called ‘conservative’ and ‘reversed’, have been extensively discussed in the literature. In ‘reversed’ uses, percent introduces a predicate that characterizes a part of a larger whole.

Restriction without Quantification: Embedding and Probability for Indicative Conditionals
Many modern theories of indicative conditionals treat them as restricted epistemic necessity modals. This view, however, faces two problems. First, indicative conditionals do not behave like necessity modals in embedded contexts, e.g., under ‘might’ and ‘

The English past tense as a definite description
There are two major groups of analyses in the literature on the English past tense; existential semantics with domain restriction, and the pronominal (i.e. anaphoric) analysis. In this paper, I discuss a group of data difficult for both of these analyses:

While presuppositions are often thought to be lexically encoded, researchers have repeatedly argued for ‘triggering algorithms’ that productively classify certain entailments as presuppositions.

Multiple representational and dynamic conceptual analysis in the wild
Cognitive semantics has different research methods, such as introspection, corpora analysis, interaction analysis, and experiments. The analysis of “data in the wild” (corpora and interaction) is generally informed by theories, but rarely by the current ...

Semantics Aware Dynamic SLAM Based on 3D MODT
The idea of SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) being a solved problem revolves around the static world assumption, even though autonomous systems are gaining environmental perception capabilities by exploiting the advances in computer vision ...

On the semantics and pragmatics of epistemic vocabulary
This paper motivates and develops a novel semantics for several epistemic expressions, including possibility and necessity modals and indicative conditionals. The semantics I defend constitutes an alternative to standard truth conditional theories, as it

Modeling the dynamic semantics of a computer program
In this paper, two approaches are used to construct the dynamic semantics of computer programs: the first is the representation of mathematical models of computational processes generated by a computer program in the form of a discrete transformer; the ...
