[hal-00824349] Observational Program Calculi and the Correctness of Translations

For the issue of translations between programming languages with observational semantics, this paper clarifies the notions, the relevant questions, and the methods, constructs a general framework, and provides several tools for proving various correctness properties of translations like adequacy and full abstractness, with a special emphasis on observational correctness. We will demonstrate that a wide range of programming languages and programming calculi and their translations can make advantageous use of our framework for focusing the analysis of their correctness.
