Domain theory is a rich interdisciplinary area at the intersection of logic, computer science, and mathematics. This volume contains selected papers presented at the International Symposium on Domain Theory which took place in Shanghai in October 1999. Topics of papers range from the encounters between topology and domain theory, sober spaces, Lawson topology, real number computability and continuous functionals to fuzzy modelling, logic programming, and pi-calculi.
This book is a valuable reference for researchers and students interested in this rapidly developing area of theoretical...

This monograph studies the logical aspects of domains as used in de notational semantics of programming languages. Frameworks of domain logics are introduced; these serve as foundations for systematic derivations of proof systems from denotational semantics of programming languages. Any proof system so derived is guaranteed to agree with denotational se mantics in the sense that the denotation of any program coincides with the set of assertions true of it. The study focuses on two categories for dena tational semantics: SFP domains, and the less standard, but important, category of stable...
