Handbook of Logic in Computer Science: Volume 4. Semantic Modelling

Klappentext The Handbook of Logic in Computer Science is a multi-volume work covering all the major areas of the application of logic to theoretical computer science. It comprises six volumes, each containing five or six chapters giving an in-depth overview of one of the major topics in the field. The handbook is the result of many years of cooperative effort by eminent researchers in the area, and will no doubt be the standard reference work in logic and theoretical computer science for years to come. Volume 4: Semantic Modelling covers the fundamental topics of semantic modelling in logic and computation. Contents include models for concurrency, concrete process algebra, correspondence between operational and denotational semantics, effective algebras, and abstract interpretation. Zusammenfassung This handbook volume covers fundamental topics of semantic modelling in logic and computation. The chapters (some monographic in length), were written following years of coordination and follow a thematic point of view. The volume brings the reader up to front line research, and is indispensable to any serious worker in the areas. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.: Models for concurrency 2.: Concrete process alegbra 3.: Correspondence between operational and denotational semantics: the full abstraction problem for PCF 4.: Effective algebras 5.: Abstract interpretation: a semantics based tool for program analysis
