by Keijo Ruohonen - Tampere University of Technology , 2009

As the introduction of the book says, "In these notes the classical Chomskian formal language theory is fairly fully dealt with, omitting however much of automata constructs and computability issues. Surveys of Lindenmayer system theory and the mathematical theory of codes are given."


by Shuly Wintner - ESSLLI , 2001

As the introduction of the book says, "This text is a mild introduction to Formal Language Theory for students with little or no background in formal systems. The motivation is Natural Language Processing, and the presentation is geared towards NLP applications, with extensive examples."


by J. M. Spivey - Prentice Hall , 1992

As the introduction of the book says, "The standard Z notation for specifying and designing software has evolved over the best part of a decade. This an informal but rigorous reference manual is written with the everyday needs of readers and writers of Z specifications in mind."


by Peter Selinger - Dalhousie University , 2007

As the introduction of the book says, "Topics covered in these notes include the untyped lambda calculus, the Church-Rosser theorem, combinatory algebras, the simply-typed lambda calculus, the Curry-Howard isomorphism, weak and strong normalization, type inference, etc."


by Gary Hardegree - UMass Amherst , 2009

As the introduction of the book says, "Contents: Basic Categorial Syntax; Shortcomings of Standard Categorial Syntax; Expanded Categorial Syntax; Examples of Expanded Categorial Syntax; Categorial Logic; Basic Categorial Semantics; Lambda-Abstraction; Expanded Categorial Semantics; etc."


by Joey Paquet, Serguei A. Mokhov - arXiv , 2010

As the introduction of the book says, "Lecture notes for the Comparative Studies of Programming Languages course. These notes include a compiled book of primarily related articles from the Wikipedia, as well as Comparative Programming Languages book and other resources."


by A. Filinski, R. Gluck, N. D. Jones - Datalogisk Institut , 2007

As the introduction of the book says, "This text concerns several dimensions of programming languages. We will emphasize precise definitions of the effects of various programming language features, the semantics and implementation of programming languages, and proofs concerning programs."


by Doug Hoyte - Lulu.com , 2008

As the introduction of the book says, "One of the most hardcore computer programming books out there. Starting with the fundamentals, it describes the most advanced features of the most advanced language: Common Lisp. This book is about macros, that is programs that write programs."


by J. Girard, Y. Lafont, P. Taylor - Cambridge University Press , 1989

As the introduction of the book says, "This little book comes from a short graduate course on typed lambda-calculus given at the Universite Paris. It is not intended to be encyclopedic and the selection of topics was really quite haphazard. Some very basic knowledge of logic is needed."


by Neal Ziring , 1998

As the introduction of the book says, "The Dictionary of Programming Languages is an online compendium of computer coding methods assembled to provide information and aid your appreciation for computer science history. The dictionary currently has over 120 entries."


by Simon Peyton Jones, David Lester - Prentice Hall , 1992

As the introduction of the book says, "This book gives a practical approach to understanding implementations of non-strict functional languages using lazy graph reduction. It is intended to be a source of practical material, to help make functional-language implementations come alive."


by Kenneth Slonneger, Barry L. Kurtz - Addison Wesley Longman , 1994

As the introduction of the book says, "The book presents the typically difficult subject of formal methods in an informal, easy-to-follow manner. Readers with a basic grounding in discreet mathematics will be able to understand the practical applications of these difficult concepts."


by D.E. Rydeheard, R.M. Burstall , 2001

As the introduction of the book says, "The book is a bridge-building exercise between computer programming and category theory. Basic constructions of category theory are expressed as computer programs. It is a first attempt at connecting the abstract mathematics with concrete programs."


by Andrea Asperti, Giuseppe Longo - MIT Press , 1991

As the introduction of the book says, "Here is an introduction to category theory for the working computer scientist. It is a self-contained introduction to general category theory and the mathematical structures that constitute the theoretical background."


by Monti Ben-Ari - John Wiley & Sons , 1996

As the introduction of the book says, "The book explains what alternatives are available to the language designer, how language constructs should be used for safety and readability, how language constructs are implemented, the role of language in expressing and enforcing abstractions."


by Mike Grant, Zachary Palmer, Scott Smith , 2009

As the introduction of the book says, "An introduction to the study of programming languages for juniors, seniors, and graduate students. The book treats topics from a foundational perspective, it focuses on core concepts in language design, not directly on applied languages."


by Neil D. Jones, Carsten K. Gomard, Peter Sestoft - Prentice Hall , 1993

As the introduction of the book says, "The book about partial evaluation, a program optimization technique also known as program specialization. It presents principles for constructing partial evaluators for a variety of programming languages, and gives references to the literature."


by Robert Harper , 2000

As the introduction of the book says, "Provides an account of the role of type theory in programming language design and implementation. The stress is on the use of types as a tool for analyzing programming language features and studying their implementation."


by Robert Harper , 2008

As the introduction of the book says, "This is a book on the foundations of programming languages. The emphasis is on the concept of type, which organizes the computational universe in the same way that the concept of set may be seen as an organizing principle for mathematics."


by Hanne Riis Nielson, Flemming Nielson - John Wiley & Sons , 1992

As the introduction of the book says, "The book covers the foundations of structural operational semantics and natural semantics. It shows how to describe the semantics of declarative as well as imperative language constructs and will also touch upon non-sequential constructs."


by Krysia Broda et al - Prentice Hall Trade , 1994

As the introduction of the book says, "The text for advanced undergraduate/graduate students of computer science. It introduces functional, imperative and logic programming and explains how to do it correctly. Functional programming is presented as a programming language in its own right."


by David Schmidt - Kansas State University , 2009
