Can programming be liberated from the von Neumann style?: a functional style and its algebra of programs

TL;DR: A new class of computing systems uses the functional programming style both in its programming language and in its state transition rules; these systems have semantics loosely coupled to states—only one state transition occurs per major computation.

Confluent Reductions: Abstract Properties and Applications to Term Rewriting Systems: Abstract Properties and Applications to Term Rewriting Systems

TL;DR: This paper gives new results, and presents old ones, concerning ChurchRosser theorems for rewrmng systems, depending solely on axioms for a binary relatton called reduction, and how these criteria yield new methods for the mechanizaUon of equattonal theories.

TL;DR: This paper gives new results, and presents old ones in a unified formalism, concerning Church-Rosser theorems for rewriting systems, and shows how these results yield efficient methods for the mechanization of equational theories.

Tree-Manipulating Systems and Church-Rosser Theorems

TL;DR: It is shown that recursively defined functions are single-valued despite the nondeterminism of the evaluation algorithm and that these functions solve their defining equations in a “canonical” manner.
