Logistic systems analysts use a wide array of modeling systems such as algebraic and logic programs. Two simple examples show how they mesh as Constraint Logic programs, emphasizin...
Reasoning about program equivalence is one of the oldest problems in semantics. In recent years, useful techniques have been developed, based on bisimulations and logical relation...
Program bloat is a fundamental problem in the field of Genetic Programming (GP). Exponential growth of redundant and functionally useless sections of programs can quickly overcome...
A declarative programming language has two kinds of semantics. The tract helps in reasoning about speci cations and correctness, while an operational semantics determines the mann...
We define a program semantics that is preserved by dependence-based slicing algorithms. It is a natural extension, to non-terminating programs, of the semantics introduced by Wei...
