Design and implementation of an optimizing type-centric compiler for a high-level language

Dmytro Petrashko

Production compilers for programming languages face multiple requirements. They should be correct, as we rely on them to produce code. They should be fast, in order to provide a good developer experience. They should also be easy to maintain and evolve. Th ...

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 ...

The Essence of Dependent Object Types

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin, Sandro Stucki, Karl Samuel Grütter

Focusing on path-dependent types, the paper develops foundations for Scala from first principles. Starting from a simple calculus D-

Type Soundness for Dependent Object Types (DOT)

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

Scala's type system unifies aspects of ML modules, object-oriented, and functional programming. The Dependent Object Types (DOT) family of calculi has been proposed as a new theoretic foundation for Scala and similar expressive languages. Unfortunately, ty ...

Dependent Object Types

Nada Amin

A scalable programming language is one in which the same concepts can describe small as well as large parts. Towards this goal, Scala unifies concepts from object and module systems. In particular, objects can contain type members, which can be selected as ...

Decrypting Local Type Inference

Hubert Plociniczak

Statically typed languages verify programs at compile-time. As a result many programming mistakes are detected at an early stage of development. A programmer does not have to specify types for every single term manually, however. Many programming languages ...

Implementing Higher-Kinded Types in Dotty

Martin Odersky, Guillaume André Fradji Martres, Dmytro Petrashko

dotty is a new, experimental Scala compiler based on DOT, the calculus of Dependent Object Types. Higher-kinded types are a natural extension of first-order lambda calculus, and have been a core construct of Haskell and Scala. As long as such types are jus ...

Compile-Time Type-Driven Data Representation Transformations in Object-Oriented Languages

Vlad Ureche

High-level languages allow programmers to express data structures and algorithms that abstract over the type of data they handle. This improves code reuse and makes it possible to develop general-purpose libraries. Yet, data abstractions slow down program ...

Foundations of Path-Dependent Types

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

A scalable programming language is one in which the same concepts can describe small as well as large parts. Towards this goal, Scala unifies concepts from object and module systems. An essential ingredient of this unification is the concept of objects wit ...
