On compiling structured interactive programs with registers and voices

Abstract

A model (consisting of rv-systems), a core programming language (for developing rv-programs), several specification and analysis techniques appropriate for modeling, programming and reasoning about interactive computing systems have been recently introduced by Stefanescu using register machines and space-time duality, see [13]. In [3,4,5,6] the authors have have introduced and studied structured programming techniques for rv-systems. The aim of the present paper is to define a scenario-based operational semantics for structured rv-programs and to offer a translation from structured rv-programs to rv-programs. The main technical result states that the translation is correct. This is part of an effort to get a running environment for structured rv-programs built up on top of rv-programs. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2008.
