Scalable Metaprogramming in Scala 3

Nicolas Alexander Stucki

A metaprogrammer should be able to reason about the semantics of the generated code.Multi-stage programming introduced an elegant and powerful solution to this problem.It follows a semantically driven approach to code generation, where semantics are fully ...

Metal Circus: Abstraction and Method in Aldo Rossi’s Early Work

Pier Vittorio Aureli

The essay focuses on the early work of Aldo Rossi, for the most part produced in collaboration with Gianugo Polesello, Luca Meda and Giorgio Grassi. In the early 1960s Rossi attempted to define a design method in which the juxtaposition of a limited set of ...

Automated Verification of Network Function Binaries

George Candea, Solal Vincenzo Pirelli

Formally verifying the correctness of software network functions (NFs) is necessary for network reliability, yet existing techniques require full source code and mandate the use of specific data structures. We describe an automated technique to verify NF b ...

Effects of item distinctiveness on the retrieval of objects and object-location bindings from visual working memory

Yury Markov

Visual working memory (VWM) is prone to interference from stored items competing for its limited capacity. Distinctiveness or similarity of the items is acknowledged to affect this competition, such that poor item distinctiveness causes a failure to discri ...

A Dynamically Scheduled HLS Flow in MLIR

Morten Borup Petersen

In High-Level Synthesis (HLS), we consider abstractions that span from software to hardware and target heterogeneous architectures. Therefore, managing the complexity introduced by this is key to implementing good, maintainable, and extendible HLS compiler ...

On the Modeling of Organic Electrochemical Transistors

Matteo Cucchi

Due to their synaptic functionality based on interacting electronic and ionic charge carriers, organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) appeal as highly attractive candidates for a new generation of organic neuromorphic devices. Despite their acknowledg ...

Trust as a Programming Primitive

Adrien Ghosn

Programming has changed; programming languages have not.Modern software embraced reusable software components, i.e., public libraries, and runs in the cloud, on machines that co-locate applications from various origins.This new programming paradigm leads t ...

HALucinator: Firmware Re-hosting Through Abstraction Layer Emulation

Mathias Josef Payer

Given the increasing ubiquity of online embedded devices, analyzing their firmware is important to security, privacy, and safety. The tight coupling between hardware and firmware and the diversity found in embedded systems makes it hard to perform dynamic ...

System Support for Efficient Replication in Distributed Systems

Dragos-Adrian Seredinschi

Current online applications, such as search engines, social networks, or file sharing services, execute across a distributed network of machines. They provide non-stop services to their users despite failures in the underlying network. To achieve such a hi ...
