Algebra of Systems[1] is a paper based on Koo's thesis[2].
A Small Algebra of Engineering Tasks
This year 2009 paper summarized the following statement in the conclusion:
In Laws of programming[3], Hoare et al. questioned whether a small set of al- gebraic laws can be directly useful in a practical engineering design problem. The absence of a tool that can bridge the cog- nitive gap between mathematical abstractions and engineering problems may have been the main reason for their conservative attitude.
The above statement echos who Dana Scott[4] was saying in the 2018 Lambda Conference.
