Trust as a Programming Primitive

Programming has changed; programming languages have not.Modern software embraced reusable software components, i.e., public libraries, and runs in the cloud, on machines that co-locate applications from various origins.This new programming paradigm leads t ...

A Tangible Programming Language for the Educational Robot Thymio

Francesco Mondada, Alberto Piatti, Christian Giang, Andrea Mussati

In the past, the use of tangible programming languages has shown several advantages compared to screen-based graphical programming languages. Especially when presented to novices, such interfaces may represent a more intuitive and straightforward alternati ...

Higher-Order Subtyping with Type Intervals

Sandro Stucki

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 ...

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 ...

Safety, Liveness and Parallelism in Concurrent Computing

Victor Bushkov

The correctness of a shared object, which can be accessed by several processes concurrently, is specified through two different kinds of properties - safety and liveness. When implementing a shared object it is important to specify its correctness in a suc ...

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 ...

Reusable Concurrent Data Types

Rachid Guerraoui, Vincent Gramoli

This paper contributes to address the fundamental challenge of building Concurrent Data Types (CDT) that are reusable and scalable at the same time. We do so by proposing the abstraction of Polymorphic Transactions (PT): a new programming abstraction that ...

Decision Procedures for Algebraic Data Types with Abstractions

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Mirco Dotta

We describe a family of decision procedures that extend the decision procedure for quantifier-free constraints on recursive algebraic data types (term algebras) to support recursive abstraction functions. Our abstraction functions are catamorphisms (term a ...

On Decision Procedures for Algebraic Data Types with Abstractions

Viktor Kuncak, Philippe Paul Henri Suter, Mirco Dotta

We describe a parameterized decision procedure that extends the decision procedure for functional recursive algebraic data types (trees) with the ability to specify and reason about abstractions of data structures. The abstract values are specified using r ...

Programming language abstractions for mobile code

Stéphane Micheloud

Scala is a general-purpose programming language developed at EPFL. It combines the most important concepts found in object-oriented and functional languages. Scala is a statically typed language; in particular it features an advanced type system and suppor ...
