Paper: The notion of a framework and a framework for LTC (at LICS 1988)

Authors: Paul F. Mendler Peter Aczel

Abstract

A precise notion of a formal framework, meant to capture the intuition of an open-ended range of deductive interpreted languages, is proposed. A particular framework called the logical theory of constructions (LTC) is developed as an example. A series of languages in the LTC framework is defined, demonstrating how a language can be thought of as gradually evolving
