+ <p>
+ The <a href="freescale/">scripts</a> present:
+ </p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>an executable formalization of the operational semantics of
+ any <a href="http://www.freescale.com">Freescale</a>
+ micro-controller of the <a href="http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/homepage.jsp?nodeId=0162468449&tid=FSH">HC05/HC08/RS08/HCS08 families</a>
+ </li>
+ <li>a compiler from assembly language (pseudocodes + operands) to
+ machine code</li>
+ <li>several automatic checks for unhandled opcodes, memory accesses,
+ correctness of ALU logic, etc.</li>
+ <li>three examples of assembly programs (string reverse, counting sort
+ and perfect numbers sieve) with sets of data to run them</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>The execution in the executable formalization has been compared
+ to real world execution using the <a href="http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/overview.jsp?code=784_LPBBNEWTOOL&fsrch=1">USB SPYDER08</a>
+ in-circuit debugger.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ The code (in <a href="http://caml.inria.fr">OCaml</a>)
+ of an executable <a href="freescale/freescale_ocaml">emulator</a>,
+ automatically generated from the scripts above. On the tests above,
+ it runs at about 29% of the speed of the
+ <a href="http://www.freescale.com/codewarrior">CodeWarrior</a>
+ emulation engine.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>The formalization has been the Undergraduate Thesis of
+ Mr. Cosimo Oliboni. The manuscript (italian only) can be found
+ <a href="http://matita.cs.unibo.it/documentation.shtml#freescale">
+ here</a>.

+ <h2>The Formal System λδ (lambda-delta)<a name="lambda-delta"></a></h2>
+
+ <p>The formal system λδ is a typed λ-calculus that
+ pursues the unification of terms, types, environments and contexts
+ as the main goal.
+ λδ takes some features from the Automath-related
+ λ-calculi and some from the pure type systems, but differs
+ from both in that it does not include the Π construction while it
+ provides for an abbreviation mechanism at the level of terms.
+ </p>
+
+ <p> The development presents the proofs of some important properties that
+ λδ enjoys. In particular:
+ <ul> <li> the confluence of reduction </li>
+ <li> the correctness of types </li>
+ <li> the uniqueness of types up to conversion </li>
+ <li> the subject reduction of the type assignment </li>
+ <li> the strong normalization of the typed terms </li>
+ <li> the decidability of type inference problem </li>
+ </ul>
+ </p>
+

+ See the <a href="http://helm.cs.unibo.it/lambda-delta/">λδ home page</a>
+ for more information.
