Algorithmic logic is a calculus in which one can express the semantical properties of programs and it allows to construct proofs of the formulas. In this way one can prove property like correctness by proving the corresponding formula that express the property.

Introduction

Algorithmic logic is a calculus of logic. It is an attractive workplace for software engineers as well as for mathematially oriented people. It is quite reasonable to give it another name calculus of programs.

Fig. 1 Four logical systems and their sets of well formed expressions

Figure 1 shows relations among four logical calculi. An arrow [math]\mathcal{L}\rightarrow\mathcal{L}'[/math] between two logical calculi [math]\mathcal{L}[/math] and [math]\mathcal{L}'[/math] has following meaning: Every tautology [math]\alpha[/math] of calculus [math]\mathcal{L}[/math] becmes a tatutology of calculus [math]\mathcal{L}[/math]' when atoms of formula [math]\alpha[/math] are replaced by formulas of calculus [math]\mathcal{L}[/math]. More insight can be gained by comparison of sets of well formed formulas [math]\mathcal{WFF} [/math].
The languages of four calculi differ. Each language is a pair <alphabet, WFF the set of well formed expressions>. Note, in each case the structure of the set of well formed expression [math]\mathcal{WFF} [/math] (ang. well formed formulas) is different.
Legend: [math]\mathcal{L}[/math] - language, [math]\mathcal{A}[/math] - alphabet, [math]\mathcal{T}[/math] - set of terms (arithmetical, object, string, ... expressions), [math]\mathcal{F}[/math] - set of formulas, [math]\mathcal{P}[/math] - set of programs.

Set of formulas of algorithmic logic contains all formulas of first-order logic. Moreover it contains formulas which consist of program preceding a formula. If [math]\alpha[/math] is a formula and [math]K[/math] is a program, then the expression of the form [math]K\alpha[/math] is a formula of the language of algorithmic logic. In short, an algorithmic formula.
Such a formula [math]K\alpha[/math] is evaluated to false or true according to the diagram Fig.5.

Fig. 5 Meaning of formula [math]K\alpha[/math] is determined by commutativity of this diagram

Figure 5 should be self explanatory. It remains to decide what to do when a computation of program K does not bring a result . It may happen that computation of program K is infinite or another error occurred. In such case it is impossible to assert that for data v the computation of program K ends successfully and the results satisfy the condition [math]\alpha[/math]'. Hence in this case the value of formula [math]K\alpha[/math] is false..

O logice algorytmicznej możemy też powiedzieć, że jest rachunkiem programów. Język logiki algorytmicznej zawiera programy i formuły algorytmiczne. Ważne jest to, że każda semantyczna własność programów np. poprawność, równowazność, kończenie obliczeń lub przeciwnie zapętlanie, ... może być wyrażona przez odpowiednią formułę. Pozwala to zamienić zadanie wykazania, że pewien program [math]P[/math] posiada pewną własnośc semantyczną [math]S[/math] na zadanie udowodnić formułę [math]\beta[/math] należąca do języka logiki algorytmicznej.
Przykład
Własność: Dla każdych danych [math]v[/math], jeśli program [math]K[/math] rozpoczyna obliczenia z danymi spełniającymi warunek [math]\alpha[/math] to jego obliczenie zakończy się (nie będzie zapętlenia, ani przerwania obliczeń) i jego wyniki spełniają warunek [math]\beta[/math], jest wyrażana formułą [math]\alpha \rightarrow K\beta[/math]. Nie musimy więc podejmować trudu testowania czy dla kazdych danych obliczenie programu K będzie skończone i ...


Formuły tworzą algebrę z działaniami: konkatenacji, alternatywy, negacji i implikacji oraz z działaniami nieskończonymi tj. kwantyfikatorami, ponadto programy są modalnościami. Programy też tworzą algebrę: działaniami tej algebry są iteracja, rozgałęzienie i złożenie programów. Mamy więc do czynienia ze splotem dwu algebr. Możemy go nazwać rachunkiem programów. Zadaniem logiki algorytmicznej jest poszukiwanie praw rachunku programów.

Celem jest zebranie praw i reguł wnioskowania, które umożliwią analizę algorytmów i wydawanie opinii o ich własnościach semantycznych, bez wykonywania obliczeń, na podstawie samego tekstu algorytmu i aksjomatów struktury danych w jakiej dany program ma byc interpretowany.

Structure of AL

An algorithmic logic is a pair [math]\mathcal{AL} = \langle \mathcal{L}, \mathcal{C} \rangle [/math], where [math]\mathcal{L} [/math] is a formalized language of algorithmic logic and [math]\mathcal{C} [/math] is i a logical consequence operation defined by the notions of logical axioms, inference rules and the notion of (formal) proof. An algorithmic language [math]\mathcal{L} [/math] is a pair consisting of the alphabet of [math]\mathcal{L} [/math] and the set of well-formed expressions, [math]\mathcal{L} = \langle A, WFF \rangle [/math], where [math] A [/math] is the alphabet, i.e. the set of admissible symbols and [math] WFF [/math] is the set of well formed expressions of the language.


Structure

  1. Define syntax - of expressions(terms), formulas and programs.
  2. Define semantics - partially using the Tarski's scheme: each term defines a function and each formula defines ...
partially through the notion of computation ...
  1. Make a catalogue of semantical properties of programs: halting property, correctness, partial correctness, ...
  2. Define algorithmic formulas -- show that semantical properties of programs are expressible in the language of algorithmic formulas,
  3. Find the axioms and inference rules of algorithmic logic
  4. Show the completeness property of AL,
  5. Show applications

Algorithmic theories

Here we shall collect axiomatizations of various algorithmic theories. Each set [math]S[/math] of this collection may be conceived as specification of a class [math]C[/math] that implements the set [math]S[/math].

Algorithmic theory of natural numbers
Algorithmic theory of integers
Algorithmic theory of rational numbers

Algorithmic theory of stacks

Algorithmic theory of FIFO queues

Algorithmic theory of binary trees

Algorithmic theory of binary search trees BST

Algorithmic theory of heaps

Algorithmic theory of dictionaries - i.e. finite sets

Algorithmic theory of priority queues

History

The first papers on properties of programs appeared in the 50-ies of XX century. To mention a few: Yanov, Sh. Igarashi. Later the papers of Helmut Thiele and of Erwin Engeler are important ones.

In 1969 the program of research of algorithmic logic was formulated in the Ph.D. thesis of A. Salwicki.

Other logics of programs

You may ask how calculus of programs is related to other calculi: e.g. Floyd, Hoare, Dijkstra, dynamic logic, etc.?

logic of Hoare
