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...
Abstract. Algebraic laws have been proposed to support program transformation in several paradigms. In general, and for object-orientation in particular, these laws tend to ignore ...
Abstract. We provide a complete system of transformation rules for semantic unification with respect to theories defined by convergent rewrite systems. We show that this standard u...
This paper reports on results concerning the combination of non-standard semantics via interpreters. We define what a semantics combination means and identify under which condition...
This chapter is to provide a tutorial and pointers to results and related work on timed automata with a focus on semantical and algorithmic aspects of verification tools. We prese...
