Ontology for SEAM Service Models

Alain Wegmann, Gorica Tapandjieva Sekulovska

A service system is a popular concept in academia and industry. At the same time, it is a challenging concept to represent, due to its recursive nature and difficulty to relate it to entities in reality. In this paper we present an ontology for modeling se ...

Proactive Synthesis of Recursive Tree-to-String Functions from Examples

Viktor Kuncak, Mikaël Mayer, Jad Hamza

Synthesis from examples enables non-expert users to generate programs by specifying examples of their behavior. A domain-specific form of such synthesis has been recently deployed in a widely used spreadsheet software product. In this paper we contribute t ...

Algorithmic Resource Verification

Ravichandhran Kandhadai Madhavan

Static estimation of resource utilisation of programs is a challenging and important problem with numerous applications. In this thesis, I present new algorithms that enable users to specify and verify their desired bounds on resource usage of functional p ...

Contract-Based Resource Verification for Higher-Order Functions with Memoization

Viktor Kuncak, Ravichandhran Kandhadai Madhavan, Sumith Kulal

We present a new approach for specifying and verifying resource utilization of higher-order functional programs that use lazy evaluation and memoization. In our approach, users can specify the desired resource bound as templates with numerical holes e.g. a ...

Termination of Open Higher-Order Programs

Viktor Kuncak, Nicolas Charles Yves Voirol, Ravichandhran Kandhadai Madhavan

We study the problem of proving termination of open, higher-order programs with recursive functions and datatypes. We identify a new point in the design space of solutions, with an appealing trade-off between simplicity of specification, modularity, and am ...

Optimization Of Compound Regularization Parameters Based On Stein'S Unbiased Risk Estimate

Xin Liu, Hanjie Pan, Feng Xue, Jiaqi Liu

Recently, the type of compound regularizers has become a popular choice for signal reconstruction. The estimation quality is generally sensitive to the values of multiple regularization parameters. In this work, based on BDF algorithm, we develop a data-dr ...

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 ...

Classifying Functions with Exact Synthesis

Giovanni De Micheli, Mathias Soeken, Eleonora Testa, Winston Jason Haaswijk

Due to recent advances, constraint solvers have become efficient tools for synthesizing optimum Boolean circuits. We take advantage of this by showing how SAT based exact synthesis may be used as a method for finding minimum length Boolean chains. As oppos ...

Rise time reduction of thermal actuators operated in air and water through optimized pre-shaped open-loop driving

Georg Fantner, Nahid Hosseini, Tom Larsen

Electrothermal actuators have many advantages compared to other actuators used in micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS). They are simple to design, easy to fabricate and provide large displacements at low voltages. Low voltages enable less stringent pass ...

Automating Verification of Functional Programs with Quantified Invariants

Viktor Kuncak, Nicolas Charles Yves Voirol

We present the foundations of a verifier for higher-order functional programs with generics and recursive algebraic data types. Our ver- ifier supports finding sound proofs and counterexamples even in the presence of certain quantified invariants and recur ...
