Additional information
<07>Originality: This paper extends Hoare’s algebraic compilation approach to object-oriented programs. The source language caters for inheritance, recursive classes, dynamic binding, visibility, and type tests and casts; the target is akin to a Java Virtual Machine. Its setting is, therefore, much more challenging than that in the original work on algebraic compilation. Rigour: Soundness is addressed by proof in terms of an algebraic semantics. Significance: This work follows from a project that was jointly supported by a Brazilian Research Agency and the American NSF; in its final evaluation, the project was given the highest commendation: merit of honour.
