In computer science, denotational semantics (initially known as mathematical semantics or Scott–Strachey semantics) is an approach of formalizing the meanings...

computer science, particularly in human-computer interaction, presentation semantics specify how a particular piece of a formal language is represented in...

Operational semantics is a category of formal programming language semantics in which certain desired properties of a program, such as correctness, safety...

General semantics is a school of thought that incorporates philosophic and scientific aspects. Although it does not stand on its own as a separate school...
