This paper presents a denotational model of inheritance. The model is based on an intuitive motivation of inheritance as a mechanism for deriving modified versions of recursive d...
Abstract. We introduce a denotational semantics for non-linear hybrid automata, and relate it to the operational semantics given in terms of hybrid trajectories. The semantics is d...
Multiple inheritance has long been plagued with the “diamond” inheritance problem, leading to solutions that restrict expressiveness, such as mixins and traits. Instead, we ad...
Abstract. We propose a denotational semantics for the two-level language of [GJ91, Gom92], and prove its correctness w.r.t. a standard denotational semantics. Other researchers (se...
This paper investigates a methodology of using FM (Fraenkel-Mostowski) sets, and the ideas of nominal set theory, to adjoin name generation to a semantic theory. By developing a d...
