Abstract

This paper describes the \(\mathbb K\) Tool, a system for formally defining programming languages. Formal definitions created using the \(\mathbb K\) Tool automatically yield an interpreter for the language, as well as program analysis tools such as a state-space explorer. The modularity of \(\mathbb K\) and the design of the tool allow one semantics to be used for several applications.
