A Polynomial-Time Algorithm for Global Value Numbering
We describe a polynomial-time algorithm for global value numbering, which is the problem of discovering equivalences among program sub-expressions. We treat all conditionals as non...

Local variable scoping and Kleene algebra with tests
We explore the power of relational semantics and equational reasoning in the style of Kleene algebra for analyzing programs with mutable, statically scoped local variables. We prov...

Relational semantics for effect-based program transformations with dynamic allocation
We give a denotational semantics to a region-based effect system tracking reading, writing and allocation in a higher-order language with dynamically allocated integer references....
