Concurrent Separation Logic and Operational Semantics
Viktor Vafeiadis · Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science · 2011
This paper presents a new soundness proof for concurrent separation logic (CSL) in terms of a standard operational semantics. The proof gives a direct meaning to CSL judgments, which can easily be adapted to accommodate extensions of CSL, such as permissions and storable locks, as well as more advanced program logics, such as RGSep. Further, it explains clearly why resource invariants should be ‘precise’ in proofs using the conjunction rule.
