Relaxed Operational Semantics of Concurrent Programming Languages [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2012
We propose a novel, operational framework to formally describe the semantics of concurrent programs running within the context of a relaxed memory model.

An Operational Petri Net Semantics for the Join-Calculus [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2012
We present a concurrent operational Petri net semantics for the join-calculus, a process calculus for specifying concurrent and distributed systems. There often is a gap between system specifications and the actual implementations caused by synchrony ...

Sequential Composition in the Presence of Intermediate Termination (Extended Abstract) [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
The standard operational semantics of the sequential composition operator gives rise to unbounded branching and forgetfulness when transparent process expressions are put in sequence.

Extended Connectors: Structuring Glue Operators in BIP [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2013
Based on a variation of the BIP operational semantics using the offer predicate introduced in our previous work, we extend the algebras used to model glue operators in BIP to encompass priorities.

First Class Call Stacks: Exploring Head Reduction [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016
Weak-head normalization is inconsistent with functional extensionality in the call-by-name λ-calculus. We explore this problem from a new angle via the conflict between extensionality and effects. Leveraging ideas from work on the λ-calculus with control,

Causality in the Semantics of Esterel: Revisited [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2010
We re-examine the challenges concerning causality in the semantics of Esterel and show that they pertain to the known issues in the semantics of Structured Operational Semantics with negative premises. We show that the solutions offered for the semantics

On Coevaluation Behavior and Equivalence

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
Coevaluation, the coinductive interpretation of standard big-step evaluation rules, is a concise form of semantics, with the same number of rules as in evaluation, which intends to simultaneously describe finite and infinite computations.

A Modular Structural Operational Semantics for Delimited Continuations [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016
It has been an open question as to whether the Modular Structural Operational Semantics framework can express the dynamic semantics of call/cc. This paper shows that it can, and furthermore, demonstrates that it can express the more general delimited ...

Fair Operational Semantics

open access: yesProceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages, 2023
Fairness properties, which state that a sequence of bad events cannot happen infinitely before a good event takes place, are often crucial in program verification. However, general methods for expressing and reasoning about various kinds of fairness properties are relatively underdeveloped compared to those for safety properties.

Smali+: an Operational Semantics for Low-level Code Generated from Reverse Engineering Android Applications+

open access: yesInformation, 2020
Today, Android accounts for more than 80% of the global market share. Such a high rate makes Android applications an important topic that raises serious questions about its security, privacy, misbehavior and correctness.
