Title: Modular Predicate Transformer Semantics
Abstract
Predicate transformer semantics, a variant on Hoare logics, allow for effective mechanizations of semantics of programming languages. However, traditional formulations suffer from bad extensibility. This talk will present a way of constructing predicate transformer semantics compositionally, while keeping them sound along the way.
