SEMBridge: Tagless-Final Program Semantics with Weakest-Precondition and Bounded-Checking Interpretations 文章

arXiv:2606.00220v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Formal methods provide rigorous accounts of program behavior, but practical software engineering often works through executable libraries, tests, and incremental design. This paper presents SEMBridge, a small tagless-final framework for generating weakest-precondition and bounded-checking interpretations from the same executable object programs. Instead of committing a program semantics to one abstract syntax tree and then writing separate traversals, object programs are written once against a semantic interface and interpreted into multiple meanings: readable code, concrete execution, predicate transformers, bounded counterexample search, and future proof-assistant or SMT back ends. The Python prototype implements a loop-free imperative core with assignments, conditionals, assumptions, and assertions.
