Concurrent Kleene Algebra and its Foundations
A Concurrent Kleene Algebra offers two composition operators, related by a weak version of an exchange law: when applied in a trace model of program semantics, one of them stands...

Local actions for a curry-style operational semantics
Soundness proofs of program logics such as Hoare logics and type systems are often made easier by decorating the operational semantics with information that is useful in the proof...

A Tactic Language for Hiproofs
Abstract. We introduce and study a tactic language, Hitac, for constructing hierarchical proofs, known as hiproofs. The idea of hiproofs is to superimpose a labelled hierarchical n...

Operational Semantics and Program Equivalence
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...
