Description for Introduction to the Theory of Programming Languages
Paperback. This book sets unites the various formalisms that define a programming language: 'small steps' operational semantics, 'big steps' operational semantics, and denotational semantics. It illustrates them with typical features of programming languages. Series: Undergraduate Topics in Computer Science. Num Pages: 108 pages, biography. BIC Classification: UMX.

The design and implementation of programming languages, from Fortran and Cobol to Caml and Java, has been one of the key developments in the management of ever more complex computerized systems. Introduction to the Theory of Programming Languages gives the reader the means to discover the tools to think, design, and implement these languages. It proposes a unified vision of the different formalisms that permit definition of a programming language: small steps operational semantics, big steps operational semantics, and denotational semantics, emphasising that all seek to define a relation between three objects: a program, an input value, and an ...
