Formal semantics and functional semantics [PDF]

open access: yesThe Sign of the V: Papers in Honour of Sten Vikner, 2019
This joint article represents an attempt to clarify relations between two rather different approaches to the description of linguistic meaning: truth-conditional semantics (as represented by Peter Widell) and functional semantics (as represented by Peter Harder).

Formal Distributional Semantics: Introduction to the Special Issue

open access: yesComputational Linguistics, 2021
Formal Semantics and Distributional Semantics are two very influential semantic frameworks in Computational Linguistics. Formal Semantics is based on a symbolic tradition and centered around the inferential properties of language.

Modular, compositional, and executable formal semantics for LLVM IR

open access: yesProc. ACM Program. Lang., 2021
This paper presents a novel formal semantics, mechanized in Coq, for a large, sequential subset of the LLVM IR. In contrast to previous approaches, which use relationally-specified operational semantics, this new semantics is based on monadic ...

Executable formal semantics for the POSIX shell [PDF]

open access: yesProc. ACM Program. Lang., 2019
The POSIX shell is a widely deployed, powerful tool for managing computer systems. The shell is the expert’s control panel, a necessary tool for configuring, compiling, installing, maintaining, and deploying systems.

KRust: A Formal Executable Semantics of Rust [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical Aspects of Software Engineering, 2018
Rust is a new and promising high-level system programming language. It provides both memory safety and thread safety through its novel mechanisms such as ownership, moves and borrows.

A complete formal semantics of x86-64 user-level instruction set architecture

open access: yesACM-SIGPLAN Symposium on Programming Language Design and Implementation, 2019
We present the most complete and thoroughly tested formal semantics of x86-64 to date. Our semantics faithfully formalizes all the non-deprecated, sequential user-level instructions of the x86-64 Haswell instruction set architecture.

Adding Sessions to BPEL [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2012
By considering an essential subset of the BPEL orchestration language, we define SeB, a session based style of this subset. We discuss the formal semantics of SeB and we present its main properties.

Formal Semantics of Heterogeneous CUDA-C: A Modular Approach with Applications [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2012
We extend an off-the-shelf, executable formal semantics of C (Ellison and Rosu's K Framework semantics) with the core features of CUDA-C. The hybrid CPU/GPU computation model of CUDA-C presents challenges not just for programmers, but also for ...

A Coq mechanised formal semantics for realistic SQL queries: formally reconciling SQL and bag relational algebra

open access: yesCertified Programs and Proofs, 2019
In this article, we provide a Coq mechanised, executable, formal semantics for a realistic fragment of SQL consisting of "select [distinct] from where group by having" queries with null values, functions, aggregates, quantifiers and nested potentially ...
