In the first chapter of this thesis, the macrocyclization of a new type of bifunctional substrates, omega-isocyanoaldehyde derivatives, is described. Ten different omega-isocyanoaldehydes in terms of different ring sizes and functional groups were prepared ...
In this thesis, we present Stainless, a verification system for an expressive subset of the Scala language.
Our system is based on a dependently-typed language and an algorithmic type checking procedure
which ensures total correctness. We rely on SMT solve ...
Data races have long been a notorious problem in concurrent programming. They are subtle to detect, and lead to non-deterministic behaviours. There has been a lot of interest in type systems that statically guarantee data race freedom. Significant progress ...
Type systems usually characterize the shape of values but not their free variables. However, many desirable safety properties could be guaranteed if one knew the free variables captured by values. We describe CC
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 ...
Rances in the north of Vaud suffered last year from the effects of large soil movement. Rances became the new playground where MeduSoil technology was tested as a remediation for this type of events. This is a decisive new step, after the technology has be ...
In the face of the increasing trend in application development to interact with more and more remote services, and cognizant of the fact that issues arising from data consistency and task coordination are core challenges in distributed programming, the sys ...
Modern, statically typed programming languages provide various abstraction facilities at both the term- and type-level. Common abstraction mechanisms for types include parametric polymorphism -- a hallmark of functional languages -- and subtyping -- which ...
Tetra-n-butylammonium (TBA) (eta(6)-biphenyl)diphenyfferrate was formed unexpectedly in the reaction of (TBA)(2)[Fe4S4Cl4] with an excess of phenyllithium. This complex belongs to a novel type of organoferrate. ...
The Lasp programming language provides combinator functions such as Union and Intersection for combining set CRDTs. When designing a CRDT combinator, care must be taken to ensure that the combinator is monotone separately in each of its arguments, so that ...
