Scaling Language Features for Program Verification

Georg Stefan Schmid

Formal verification of real-world software systems remains challenging for a number of reasons, including lack of automation, friction in specifying properties, and limited support for the diverse programming paradigms used in industry. In this thesis we m ...

Holistic, Efficient, and Real-time Cleaning of Heterogeneous Data

Styliani Asimina Giannakopoulou

Data cleaning has become an indispensable part of data analysis due to the increasing amount of dirty data. Data scientists spend most of their time preparing dirty data before it can be used for data analysis. Existing solutions that attempt to automate t ...

Design and implementation of an optimizing type-centric compiler for a high-level language

Dmytro Petrashko

Production compilers for programming languages face multiple requirements. They should be correct, as we rely on them to produce code. They should be fast, in order to provide a good developer experience. They should also be easy to maintain and evolve. Th ...

Jet: An Embedded DSL for High Performance Big Data Processing

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Vojin Jovanovic, Stefan Ackermann

Cluster computing systems today impose a trade-off between generality, performance and productivity. Hadoop and Dryad force programmers to write low level programs that are tedious to compose but easy to optimize. Systems like Dryad/LINQ and Spark allow co ...

Deadlock Immunity: Enabling Systems To Defend Against Deadlocks

George Candea, Cristian Zamfir, Horatiu Jula, Daniel Tralamazza

Deadlock immunity is a property by which programs, once afflicted by a given deadlock, develop resistance against future occurrences of that and similar deadlocks. We describe a technique that enables programs to automatically gain such immunity without as ...

Actors that Unify Threads and Events

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller

In practice, concurrent programming systems based on message passing are often instantiations of the actor model. A popular implementation of this form of concurrency is the Erlang programming language. Erlang supports massively concurrent systems such as ...

High-performance explicit transient structural analysis

The continuous development of finite element programs creates code which is increasingly difficult to maintain, due to the increasing complexity as well as the chosen programming language. At the same time, the desire to analyse increasingly more complex a ...

Teapot: Language Support for Writing Memory Coherence Protocols

James Richard Larus

Recent shared-memory parallel computer systems offer the exciting possibility of customizing memory coherence protocols to fit an application's semantics and sharing patterns. Custom protocols have been used to achieve message-passing performance---while r ...

Introduction to Object-Oriented Mixed Prototyping with Algebraic Specifications

Automatic implementations of abstract data types (ADT) from algebraic specifications are currently all done in either functional, logical or purely imperative languages. In this paper we show how object-oriented languages naturally facilitate this job, and ...
