Modular, compositional, and executable formal semantics for LLVM IR
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 ...

On the formal semantics of IF-like logics [PDF]
في المنطق الكلاسيكي، يكون معنى الصيغة ثابتًا فيما يتعلق بإعادة تسمية المتغيرات المرتبطة. وقد تبين أن هذه الخاصية، التي تؤخذ عادة كأمر مسلم به، لا تحتفظ في حالة المنطق الصديق للاستقلال (IF). في هذه الورقة، نجادل بأن هذه ليست سمة متأصلة في هذه المنطق ولكنها عيب في الطريقة التي تم بها تعميم الدلالات التركيبية التي قدمها هودجز للجزء العادي على الصيغ ...

On the Triviality of the Principle of Compositionality
The principle of compositionality states that the meaning of an expression is a function of the meanings of its parts. The principle is based on Gottlob Frege’s works that consider linguistic meaning in the function-argument structure.
