Abstract
In the theory of denotational semantics of programming languages Dedekind-complete, algebraic partial orders (domains) frequently have been considered since Scott's and Strachey's fundamental work in 1971 (Stoy, 1977). As Scott (1982) showed, these domains can be represented canonically by (deterministic) information systems. However, recently, more complicated constructions (such as power domains) have led to more general domains (Plotkin, 1976; Smyth and Plotkin, 1977; Smyth, 1983). We introduce non-deterministic information systems and establish the representation theorem similar to Scott (1982) for these more general domains. This result will be the basis for solving recursive domain equations.
