On Fast Code Completion using Type Inhabitation

Viktor Kuncak, Tihomir Gvero, Ivan Kuraj, Ruzica Piskac

Developing modern software applications typically involves composing functionality from existing libraries. This task is difficult because libraries may expose many methods to the developer. To help developers in such scenarios, we present a technique that ...

Implementing a Type Debugger for Scala

Martin Odersky, Hubert Plociniczak

Statically-typed languages offer type systems that are less and less comprehensible for programmers as the language grows in complexity. In this paper, we present a type debugger, a tool that enables analysis of type-related problems as well as exploration ...

Relative Effect Declarations for Lightweight Effect-Polymorphism

Martin Odersky, Lukas Rytz

Type-and-effect systems are a well-studied approach for reasoning about the computational behavior of programs. A major roadblock in adopting effect systems in popular languages is the tradeoff between expressiveness and verbosity. In this technical report ...

Improving API Documentation for Java-like Languages

Gilles Dubochet, Donna Malayeri

The Javadoc paradigm for displaying API documentation to users is quite popular, with similar variants existing for many mainstream languages. However, two user interface design properties of Javadoc may reduce its utility when displaying documentation for ...

Capabilities for Uniqueness and Borrowing

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller

An important application of unique object references is safe and efficient message passing in concurrent object-oriented programming. However, to prevent the ill effects of aliasing, practical systems often severely restrict the shape of messages passed by ...

ELM filament interaction with the JET main chamber☆

Richard Pitts, Gilles Arnoux

This work constitutes the first extended analysis of the spatial structure of Type-I ELM filament footprints on the JET outer limiters and upper dump plates. The data is obtained using a wide angle infrared diagnostic (with time resolution of 125 Hz) and c ...

The roles of mask luminance and perceptual grouping in visual backward masking

Michael Herzog, Gregory Francis

Visual backward masking is a commonly used technique in vision research and psychology. There are two distinct types of masking. Either masking is strongest for a simultaneous presentation of the target and the mask (A-type masking) or masking is strongest ...

Generics of a Higher Kind

Martin Odersky

With Java 5 and C-# 2.0, first-order parametric polymorphism was introduced in mainstream object-oriented programming languages under the name of generics. Although the first- order variant of generics is very useful, it also imposes some restrictions: it ...
