Composed Reduction Systems

In 6th NWPT, pages 359-376

Abstract:

This paper studies composed reduction systems: a system of programs built up from the reduction relations of some reduction system, by means of parallel and sequential composition operators. The trace-based compositional semantics of composed reduction systems is considered, and a new graph-representation is introduced as an alternative basis for the study of compositional semantics, refinement, true concurrency (in the case of composed rewriting systems) and program logics.
