Abstract: We present a denotational semantics for an Algol-like language Alg which is fully abstract for the second order subset of Alg. This constitutes the first significant full abstraction result for a block structured language with local variables. In this preliminary report we concentrate on the construction of the denotational model and on the main ideas of the full abstraction proof. For more background information about (problems involved with) the semantics of local variables, especially ... (Update)
