Dynamic Programming OPtimization (DPOP) is an algorithm proposed for solving distributed constraint optimization problems. In this algorithm, Hypercubes are used as the format of the messages exchanged between the agents. Then, Hybrid-DPOP (H-DPOP), a hybr ...
Pattern matching is a widespread programming language construct that enables definitions of values by cases, generalizing if-then-else and case statements. The cases in a pattern matching expression should be exhaustive: when the value does not match any o ...
The current Internet is characterized by a growing tension between the "core" (the Internet service providers) and the "edge" (the operators of edge networks and distributed applications). Much of this tension concerns path visibility and control -- where ...
Pattern matching makes ML programs more concise and readable, and these qualities are also sought in object-oriented settings. However, objects and classes come with open class hierarchies, extensibility requirements and the need for data abstraction, whic ...
Scala is a general purpose programming language designed to express common programming patterns in a concise, elegant, and type-safe way. It smoothly integrates features of object-oriented and functional languages. It is also fully interoperable with Java. ...
We present the first verification of full functional correctness for a range of linked data structure implementations, including mutable lists, trees, graphs, and hash tables. Specifically, we present the use of the Jahob verification system to verify form ...
Scala relies on libraries as the default mechanism for language extension. While this provides an elegant solution for growing the language, the performance penalty incurred by call-by-name parameters, boxing and anonymous functions is high. We show that i ...
This manual will be useful for people looking to extend R with the C compiled code. The motivation for using the C interface with R may be bidirectional. For statisticians programming mainly in R, an interface to C provides fast execution of code and bette ...
Scala fuses object-oriented and functional programming in a statically typed programming language. It is aimed at the construction of components and component systems. This paper gives an overview of the Scala language for readers who are familar with prog ...
We present a method for generating polynomial invariants for a subfamily of imperative loops operating on numbers, called the P-solvable loops. The method uses algorithmic combinatorics and algebraic techniques. The approach is shown to be complete for som ...
