Compositional Specification in Rewriting Logic. Theory and Practice of Logic Programming. 2020;20(1):44-98. doi:10.1017/S1471068419000425 1471-0684 10.1017/S1471068419000425 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/94870 https://doi.org/10.1017/S1471068419000425 Rewriting logic is naturally concurrent: several subterms of the state term can be rewritten simultaneously. But state terms are global, which makes compositionality difficult to achieve. Compositionality here means being able to decompose a complex system into its functional components and code each as an isolated and encapsulated system. Our goal is to help bringing compositionality to system specification in rewriting logic. The base of our proposal is the operation that we call synchronous composition. We discuss the motivations and implications of our proposal, formalize it for rewriting logic and also for transition structures, to be used as semantics, and show the power of our approach with some examples. eng restricted access Compositional specification in rewriting logic journal article
