Enhanced operational semantics [PDF]
This article surveys the definition and application of an enhancement of structural operational semantics in the field of concurrent systems, and also addresses issues of distribution and mobility ...

Operational Semantics for MSC'96 [PDF]
Recently, the ITU-standardised specification language Message Sequence Chart has been extended with constructs for more complete and structured specifications. The new version of the language is called MSC'96. Currently, research is performed on the extension of the formal semantics towards a semantics for MSC'96.

Operational semantics for signal handling [PDF]
Signals are a lightweight form of interprocess communication in Unix. When a process receives a signal, the control flow is interrupted and a previously installed signal handler is run.

Graph grammars and operational semantics
AbstractTransformations of graphlike expressions are called correct if they preserve a given functional semantics of the expressions. Combining the algebraic theories of graph grammars (cf. [10]) and programming language semantics (cf. [1]) it will be proved that the correctness of transformation rules carries over to the correctness of derivations via

Operational semantics of proto
The Proto spatial computing language in Beal and Bachrach (2006) [1] simplifies the creation of scalable, robust, distributed programs by abstracting a network of locally communicating devices as a continuous geometric manifold. However, Proto's successful application in a number of domains is challenging its coherence across different platforms and ...

Operational Semantics of Hybrid Systems [PDF]
Hybrid systems are heterogeneous systems that include continuous-time (CT) subsystems interacting with discrete-event (DE) subsystems. They are effective models for physical systems interacting with software or experiencing discrete mode changes. This dissertation discusses an interpretation of hybrid systems as executable programs written in a ...

An operational semantics for android activities [PDF]
We define an operational semantics for a large part of the Android platform, encompassing the Dalvik bytecode but also, and more importantly, the inter-component communication mechanism used inside Android applications. This semantics is intended to provide a formal basis for the development of static analyses that consider the complex flow of ...
