Synopsis

This book provides a synthesis of four versions of program semantic―srelational semantics, predicate transformer semantics, information systems, and domain theory―showing, through an exhaustive case study analysis, that it is possible to do back-and-forth translation from any of these versions of program semantics into any of the others, and demonstrating that while there are many variations of each, in principle they may be thought of as intertranslatable.
