Orthologic with Axioms

We study the proof theory and algorithms for orthologic, a logical system based on ortholattices, which have shown practical relevance in simplification and normalization of verification conditions. Ortholattices weaken Boolean algebras while having po ...

The Operational Semantics and Implementation of a Core Dart language

Zhivka Gucevska

In this report we present the specification of the operational semantics of Dart Kernel and a reference implementation of Dart Kernel in Dart. We design a CESK-like machine to specify the operational semantics of Dart Kernel and we implement an interpreter ...

Type Soundness Proofs with Definitional Interpreters

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

While type soundness proofs are taught in every graduate PL class, the gap between realistic languages and what is accessible to formal proofs is large. In the case of Scala, it has been shown that its formal model, the Dependent Object Types (DOT) calculu ...

Monotonicity Types

In the face of the increasing trend in application development to interact with more and more remote services, and cognizant of the fact that issues arising from data consistency and task coordination are core challenges in distributed programming, the sys ...

Foundations of Implicit Function Types

Martin Odersky, Fengyun Liu, Olivier Eric Paul Blanvillain

Implicit parameters are used pervasively in Scala and are also present in a number of other programming and theorem proving languages. This paper describes a generalization of implicit parameters as they are currently found in Scala to implicit function ty ...

Simplicitly: Foundations and Applications of Implicit Function Types

Martin Odersky, Fengyun Liu, Sandro Stucki, Olivier Eric Paul Blanvillain

Understanding a program entails understanding its context; dependencies, configurations and even implementations are all forms of contexts. Modern programming languages and theorem provers offer an array of constructs to define contexts, implicitly. Scala ...

Dependent Object Types

Nada Amin

A scalable programming language is one in which the same concepts can describe small as well as large parts. Towards this goal, Scala unifies concepts from object and module systems. In particular, objects can contain type members, which can be selected as ...

On the Privacy Implications of Location Semantics

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Kévin Clément Huguenin, Urs Beda Hengartner

Mobile users increasingly make use of location-based online services enabled by localization systems. Not only do they share their locations to obtain contextual services in return (e.g., 'nearest restaurant'), but they also share, with their friends, info ...
