A Formal Definition of the Static Semantics of Ella's Core
John D. Morison, Murray Gardner Hill · Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) · 1991
At the heart of the full ELLA language are a set of Core constructs into which any ELLA description can be transformed. This document describes a set of formal transformation rules which map these Core constructs into a set of data structures. These transformation rules define the static semantics of the language. Examples are given of circuits which are translated from the full language into ELLA's Core and of Core circuits which are translated via the formal transformation system into a set of data structures.
