W.M. Beynon, Programming Principles for the Semantics of the Semantics of Programs (January 1, 1992).

Abstract

Fundamental concerns of relevance to programming are raised by Brian Smith. These focus on the relation that holds between a program and the world outside - the semantics of what is referred to by computer scientists as the semantics of the program. This paper explains how programming concepts developed by the author in collaboration with others may contribute to "a theoretical framework that does justice to practice" such as is discussed by Smith.
