Abstract. We have designed a programming logic based on an integration of functional programming languages with classical set theory. The logic merges a classical view of equality ...
Abstract. We explore the expressive power of the formalism called Natural Operational Semantics, NOS, introduced by Burstall and Honsell for defining the operational semantics of ...
Abstract. We investigate an extension of a lazy functional logic language, which uses term disequations both in programs and in computed answers. The semantic properties of the lan...
Abstract. In this paper we study a special operator for sequential composition, which is de ned relative to a dependency relation over the actions of a given system. The idea is th...
Abstract. We introduce a compositional characterization of the operational semantics of equational Horn programs. Then we show that this semantics and the standard operational sema...
We present a categorical theory of ‘well-behaved’ operational semantics which aims at complementing the established theory of domains and denotational semantics to form a cohe...
PLC-Automata are a class of real-time automata suitable to describe the behavior of polling real-time systems. PLC-Automata can be compiled to source code for PLCs, a hardware wide...
Empirical equations are an important class of regularities that can be discovered in databases. In this paper we concentrate on the role of equations as de nitions of attribute val...
Abstract. In this paper, we study the operational semantics of agent communication languages.We develop a basic multi-agent programming language for systems of concurrently operati...

This tutorial paper discusses a particular style of operational semantics that enables one to give a ‘syntax-directed’ inductive definition of termination which is very useful...
