Verification of Imperative Programs in Scala

Régis William Blanc

Safety-critical software systems can only support a limited number of failures. Extensive testing is good at catching errors, however that will never certify their absence. Formal verification is an alternative to testing that can (automatically) provide a ...

Programming with Specifications

Philippe Paul Henri Suter

This thesis explores the use of specifications for the construction of correct programs. We go beyond their standard use as run-time assertions, and present algorithms, techniques and implementations for the tasks of 1) program verification, 2) declarative ...

Software Synthesis Procedures

Viktor Kuncak, Mikaël Mayer, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Ruzica Piskac

Automated synthesis of program fragments from specifications can make programs easier to write and easier to reason about. To integrate synthesis into programming languages, software synthesis algorithms should behave in a predictable way: they should succ ...

Constraints as Control

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter

We present an extension of Scala that supports constraint programming over bounded and unbounded domains. The resulting language, Kaplan, provides the benefits of constraint programming while preserving the existing features of Scala. Kaplan integrates con ...

Deprecating the Observer Pattern with Scala.React

Martin Odersky, Ingo Maier

Programming interactive systems by means of the observer pattern is hard and error-prone yet is still the implementation standard in many production environments. We show how to integrate different reactive programming abstractions into a single framework ...

Qualitative Spatial and Temporal Reasoning with Answer Set Programming

Jingshi Li

Representing and reasoning spatial and temporal information is a key research issue in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence. In this paper, we introduce tools that produce three novel encodings which translate problems in qualitative spatial and te ...

JavaScript as an Embedded DSL

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin, Grzegorz Kossakowski

Developing rich web applications requires mastering different environments on the client and server sides. While there is considerable choice on the server-side, the client-side is tied to JavaScript, which poses substantial software engineering challenges ...

On the Performance of Software Transactional Memory

Aleksandar Dragojevic

The recent proliferation of multi-core processors has moved concurrent programming into mainstream by forcing increasingly more programmers to write parallel code. Using traditional concurrency techniques, such as locking, is notoriously difficult and has ...

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 ...
