This report presents a prototype interpreter for a simple functional language, called SLinks. The focus of this work is two-fold. One side is the design of a type inference system, based on the Hindley-Milner algorithm, with additional support for record a ...
Developing computer systems that are both concurrent and evolving is challenging. To guarantee consistent access to resources by concurrent software components, some synchronization is required. A synchronization logic, or policy, is at present entangled i ...
PiLib is a library written in Scala that implements the concurrency constructs of the Pi-calculus. Some features of the programming language Scala, examined in the paper, make it possible to use almost the same syntax as in the Pi-calculus. The advantages ...
In this paper we design a language and runtime support for isolation-only, multithreaded transactions (called tasks). Tasks allow isolation to be declared instead of having to be encoded using the low-level synchronization constructs. The key concept of ou ...
In this paper we design a language and runtime support for isolation-only, multithreaded transactions (called tasks) that are intended for time-critical systems. The key concept of our design is the use of a type system to support rollback-free and safe ru ...
We design and study newObj, a calculus and dependent type system forobjects and classes which can have types as members. Type members canbe aliases, abstract types, or new types. The type system can modelthe essential concepts of Java's inner classes as we ...

We present a type system for a language based on F-sub, which allows certain type annotations to be elided in actual programs. Local type inference determines types by a combination of type propagation and local constraint solving, rather than by global co ...
