Resumptions, Weak Bisimilarity and Big-Step Semantics for While with Interactive I/O: An Exercise in Mixed Induction-Coinduction

TL;DR: In this paper, the operational semantics of languages with interactive I/O through the glasses of constructive type theory are defined. But this work is restricted to the case of While, and it is not applicable to other languages.

On the complexity of checking semantic equivalences between pushdown processes and finite-state processes

TL;DR: This work presents a complete picture of the computational complexity of checking strong and weak semantic preorders/equivalences between pushdown processes and finite-state processes and study fixed-parameter tractability in two important input parameters.

Resumptions, Weak Bisimilarity and Big-Step Semantics for While with Interactive I/O: An Exercise in Mixed Induction-Coinduction

TL;DR: Several big-step semantics for Whil e with interactive I/O are defined, based on resumptions and termination-sensitive weak bisimilarity, which require nesting inductive definitions in coinductive definitions, which is interesting both matically and from the point-of-view of implementation in a proof assistant.
