Abstract. We propose a framework for reasoning about program security building on language-theoretic and coalgebraic concepts. The behaviour of a system is viewed as a mapping from...
This paper reports on an approach to model generalized implicatures using nonmonotonic logics. The approach, called compositional, is based on the idea of compositional semantics, ...
The aim of the paper is to give a compositional semantics in the style of the Structural Operational Semantics (SOS) and to study behavioral equivalence notions for P Systems. Fir...

We argue for a compositional semantics grounded in a strongly typed ontology that reflects our commonsense view of the world and the way we talk about it. Assuming such a structure...
A compositional semantics for focusing subjuncts-words such as only, even, and also--is developed from Rooth's theory of association with focus. By adapting the theory so tha...
Abstract. In this short paper we describe the DFL hybrid knowledge base, that integrates descriptions with expressive object-oriented rules. The knowledge base manages a database o...
This paper presents a corpus-based study of the discourse connective in contrast. The corpus data are drawn from the British National Corpus (BNC) and are analyzed at the levels o...
Determining the polarity of a sentimentbearing expression requires more than a simple bag-of-words approach. In particular, words or constituents within the expression can interac...
In contrast to LFG and HPSG, there is to date no large scale Tree Adjoining Grammar (TAG) equiped with a compositional semantics. In this paper, we report on the integration of a ...
Abstract. Rebeca is an actor-based language which has been successfully applied to model concurrent and distributed systems. The semantics of Rebeca in labeled transition system is...
