Compositional semantics allow to reason about programs in an incremental way, thus providing the formal base for the development of modular data-flow analyses. The major drawback ...
When teaching concurrency, using a process-oriented language, it is often introduced through a visual representation of programs in the form of process network . These diagrams all...
nt, user-defined objects present an attractive abstraction for working with non-volatile program state. However, the slow speed of persistent storage (i.e., disk) has restricted ...
