X Abstract

We develop an operational model for a language based on linear logic. Our semantics is enough to express sharing and copying while still being enough to abstract away from details of memory layout, and thus can be used to test potential applications of linear logic for analysis of programs. In particular, we demonstrate a precise relationship between type correctness for the linear-logic-based language and the correctness of a reference-counting interpretation of the primitives, and formulate and prove a result describing the possible run-time reference counts of values of linear type.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
