We consider a specific kind of Abstract State Machines. It is shown how the machines can be used to provide a low-level formal semantics for a tiny object-oriented language, inclu...
Abstract. This paper aims at offering an insightful synthesis of different compositional semantics for logic program composition which have been developed in the literature. In p...
This paper describes an approach (and its implementation) on how to handle the large number of data from user centered engineering processes. It uses objectoriented abstraction me...
but other abstract objects as well (e.g., states, processes, properties, activities, attributes, etc.) It will be demonstrated here that in such a framework, a number of challenges...
“Classical” program development by refinement [12, 2, 3] is a technique for ensuring that source-level program code remains faithful to the semantic goals set out in its corre...
