Meta SOS - A Maude Based SOS Meta-Theory Framework
Meta SOS is a software framework designed to integrate the results from the
meta-theory of structural operational semantics (SOS). These results include
deriving semantic properties of language constructs just by syntactically
analyzing their rule-based definition, as well as automatically deriving sound
and ground-complete axiomatizations for languages, when considering a notion of
behavioural equivalence. This paper describes the Meta SOS framework by
blending aspects from the meta-theory of SOS, details on their implementation
in Maude, and running examples.Comment: In Proceedings EXPRESS/SOS 2013, arXiv:1307.690
PREG Axiomatizer : A Ground Bisimilarity Checker for GSOS with Predicates
PREG Axiomatizer is a tool used for proving strong bisimilarity between ground terms consisting of operations in the GSOS format extended with predicates. It automatically derives sound and ground-complete axiomatizations using a technique proposed by the authors of this paper. These axiomatizations are provided as input to the Maude system, which, in turn, is used as a reduction engine for provided ground terms. These terms are bisimilar if and only if their normal forms obtained in this fashion are equal. The motivation of this tool is the optimized handling of equivalence checking between complex ground terms within automated provers and checkers.publishe
