Radial expansion for spinning conformal blocks

This paper develops a method to compute any bosonic conformal block as a series expansion in the optimal radial coordinate introduced by Hogervorst and Rychkov. The method reduces to the known result when the external operators are all the same scalar oper ...

Common Subexpression Elimination in Dotty

Martin Odersky, Dmytro Petrashko, Allan Vincent Roger Renucci

Common subexpression elimination is a well-known compiler optimisa- tion that improves running time of compiled applications by avoiding the repetition of the same computation. Although it has been implemented on a low level such as bytecode, it misses mul ...

On Counter-Example Complete Verification for Higher-Order Functions

Viktor Kuncak, Etienne Kneuss, Nicolas Charles Yves Voirol

We present a verification procedure for pure higher-order functional Scala programs with parametric types. We show that our procedure is sound for proofs, as well as sound and complete for counter-examples. The procedure reduces the analysis of higher-orde ...

Language Support for Distributed Functional Programming

Software development has taken a fundamental turn. Software today has gone from simple, closed programs running on a single machine, to massively open programs, patching together user experiences byway of responses received via hundreds of network requests ...

Analysis and optimization of dynamic dataflow programs

Simone Casale Brunet

All computing platforms, from mobile to supercomputers, are becoming more and more heterogeneous and massively parallel. While they can provide higher power efficiency and computation throughput, effective and confident use of these systems always requires ...

Thermo-mechanical Reliability of SOFC Stacks During Combined Long-term Operation and Thermal Cycling

Jan Van Herle, Zacharie Wuillemin, Arata Nakajo, Fabio Greco

Thermo-mechanical issues in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) must be understood and overcome to meet the reliability standards for market implementation. This study presents a thermo-mechanical model of an SOFC-stack SRU. The analysis starts with the simulati ...

Computing with an SMT Solver

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

Satisfiability modulo theories (SMT) solvers that support quantifier instantiations via matching triggers can be programmed to give practical support for user-defined theories. Care must be taken to avoid so-called matching loops, which may prevent termina ...

Architecture Internalisation in BIP

Joseph Sifakis, Simon Bliudze

Architectures allow shifting the focus of developers from low-level code to high-level structures ensuring coordination in component-based systems. If the architecture description language is expressive enough, it is possible to describe architectures in a ...

Late Data Layout: Unifying Data Representation Transformations

Martin Odersky, Eugene Burmako, Vlad Ureche

Values need to be represented differently when interacting with certain language features. For example, an integer has to take an object-based representation when interacting with erased generics, although, for performance reasons, the stack-based value re ...

Improving Human-Compiler Interaction Through Customizable Type Feedback

Martin Odersky, Hubert Plociniczak

Type errors reported by compilers can sometimes be cryptic, or difficult to understand. In this paper, we propose a type debugging framework that exposes a high-level representation of the typechecking decision-making process that users normally do not hav ...
