Abstract

Based on a former relation-algebraic approach to separation logic we present an abstraction of the theory of dynamic frames and algebraically describe concepts, properties and behaviour of that theory in a pointfree fashion. Moreover, relationships to abstract concepts of separation logic are given to pave the way for a unified treatment of both approaches. In particular, we also sketch the main ideas within the framework of local actions.
