@inproceedings{207, author = {Bernd Braßel and Jan Christiansen}, editor = {Andy King}, title = {Denotation by Transformation}, abstract = {It has often been observed that a point-free style of programming provides a more abstract view on programs. We aim to use the gain in abstraction to obtain a denotational semantics for functional logic languages in a straightforward way. Here we propose a set of basic operations based on which arbitrary functional logic programs can be transformed to point-free programs. The semantics of the resulting programs are strict but, nevertheless, the semantics of the original program is preserved.}, year = {2008}, booktitle = {Logic-Based Program Synthesis and Transformation}, journal = {Logic-Based Program Synthesis and Transformation}, pages = {90-105}, publisher = {Springer Berlin Heidelberg}, isbn = {978-3-540-78769-3}, }
