Semantics for Combinatory Logic With Intersection Types

open access: yesFrontiers in Computer Science, 2022
There is a plethora of semantics of computational models, nevertheless, the semantics of combinatory logic are among the less investigated ones. In this paper, we propose semantics for the computational system of combinatory logic with intersection types.

A Complete and the Most Liberal Semantics for Converging OR Gateways in Sound Processes

open access: yesComplex Systems Informatics and Modeling Quarterly, 2015
Although the semantics of converging OR gateways (also known as OR-joins) in business processes is far from trivial, they are frequently used. In this paper, we describe a general definition for soundness of processes guaranteeing the absence of ...

Controllable Deadlocks in Parallel Resource-Constrained Workflows

open access: yesМоделирование и анализ информационных систем, 2014
We study the verification of the soundness property for workflow nets extended with resources. A workflow is sound if it terminates properly (no deadlocks and livelocks are possible).
