We present short programs that demonstrate the unsoundness of Java and Scala's current type systems. In particular, these programs provide parametrically polymorphic functions that can turn any type into any type without (down) casting. Fortunately, parame ...
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 ...
Currently, software engineering is becoming even more complex due to distributed computing. In this new context, portability while providing the programmer with the single system image of a classical Java Virtual Machine (JVM) is one of the key issues. Hen ...
Programming languages are increasingly compiled to multiple runtimes, each featuring their own rich structures such as their object model.
Furthermore, they need to interact with other languages targeting said runtimes.
A language targeting only one runtim ...
FlowPools, proposed by are a powerful way to express dataflow logic in highly parallelized applications. The original paper proposes two ways of implementing a FlowPool: Single-Lane FlowPools (SLFP) and Multi-Lane FlowPools (MLFP). While SLFPs showed decen ...
We present short programs that demonstrate the unsoundness of Java and Scala’s current type systems. In particular, these programs provide parametrically polymorphic functions that can turn any type into any type without (down)casting. Fortunately, paramet ...
Software development has taken a fundamental turn. Software today has gone from simple, closed programs running on a single machine, to massively open programs, patching together user experiences byway of responses received via hundreds of network requests ...
Generics on the Java platform are compiled using the erasure transformation, which only supports by-reference values. This causes slowdowns when generics operate on primitive types, such as integers, as they have to be transformed into reference-based obje ...
Pattern matching is a programming language construct considered essential in functional programming. Its purpose is to inspect and decompose data. Instead, object-oriented programming languages do not have a dedicated construct for this purpose. A possible ...
Parametric polymorphism enables code reuse and type safety. Underneath the uniform interface exposed to programmers, however, its low level implementation has to cope with inherently non-uniform data: value types of different sizes and semantics (bytes, in ...
