....has been suggested for reasons of mathematical elegance by Meertens and of efficiency by Sleep . In programming language theory most of the research on issues involving set semantics has concentrated on powerdomains, with the primary motivations coming from studying nondeterminism and concurrency [Gunter 1986]. A powerdomain semantics for relational and complex object databases is discussed in [Buneman et al. 1989] 1.3 Overview In Section 2 we present general results about languages built on top of the simply typed lambda calculus with products, by adding datatype presentations like those in Figure ....

Semantic Domains - Gunter, Scott (1990)   (115 citations)  Self-citation (Gunter)   (Correct)

....They were first defined by Plotkin [Plo76] where they are called SFP objects ) and the term bifinite is due to Paul Taylor. Bifinite domains (and various closely related classes of cpo s) have also been discussed under other names such as strongly algebraic [Smy83a, Gun86] and profinite [Gun87] domains. 6.1 Plotkin orders. As we suggested earlier, the image of a finitary projection p : D D on a domain D can be viewed as an approximation to D. A bifinite domain is one which is a directed limit of its finite approximations. But what is this really saying about the structure of D ....

....is a z 2 u such that z v y. Now, given a domain D, we define D to be the domain of ideals over hM(A) i. Theorem 29 If D is bifinite, then so is D . Moreover, if D = D and E is any bifinite domain, then there is a projection p : D E. A full proof of the theorem may be found in [Gun87] We will attempt to offer some hint about how the desired fixed point is obtained. At the first step we take the domain I = f g containing only the single point . At the second step, I , there are elements a = f g) and b = with b a. At the third step there are five elements ....
