Algèbre universelleL'algèbre universelle est la branche de l'algèbre qui a pour but de traiter de manière générale et simultanée les différentes structures algébriques : groupes, monoïdes, anneaux, espaces vectoriels, etc. Elle permet de définir de manière uniforme les morphismes, les sous-structures (sous-groupes, sous-monoïdes, sous-anneaux, sous-espaces vectoriels, etc.), les quotients, les produits et les objets libres pour ces structures.
Bounded quantificationIn type theory, bounded quantification (also bounded polymorphism or constrained genericity) refers to universal or existential quantifiers which are restricted ("bounded") to range only over the subtypes of a particular type. Bounded quantification is an interaction of parametric polymorphism with subtyping. Bounded quantification has traditionally been studied in the functional setting of System F
Runtime verificationRuntime verification is a computing system analysis and execution approach based on extracting information from a running system and using it to detect and possibly react to observed behaviors satisfying or violating certain properties. Some very particular properties, such as datarace and deadlock freedom, are typically desired to be satisfied by all systems and may be best implemented algorithmically. Other properties can be more conveniently captured as formal specifications.
Runtime libraryIn computer programming, a runtime library is a set of low-level routines used by a compiler to invoke some of the behaviors of a runtime environment, by inserting calls to the runtime library into compiled executable binary. The runtime environment implements the execution model, built-in functions, and other fundamental behaviors of a programming language. During execution (run time) of that computer program, execution of those calls to the runtime library cause communication between the executable binary and the runtime environment.
Exécution (informatique)En informatique, l'exécution est le processus par lequel un ordinateur ou une machine virtuelle met en œuvre les instructions d'un programme. Les instructions du programme entraînent des séquences d'actions élémentaires sur la machine d'exécution. Les effets qu'entraînent ces actions sont conformes à la sémantique des instructions du programme. Un programme en cours d'exécution est appelé un processus. L’exécution symbolique permet d'explorer les chemins d'exécution possibles d'un programme informatique à partir des symboles contenus dans son code source.
Méthode formelle (informatique)En informatique, les méthodes formelles sont des techniques permettant de raisonner rigoureusement, à l'aide de logique mathématique, sur un programme informatique ou du matériel électronique numérique, afin de démontrer leur validité par rapport à une certaine spécification. Elles reposent sur les sémantiques des programmes, c'est-à-dire sur des descriptions mathématiques formelles du sens d'un programme donné par son code source (ou, parfois, son code objet).
Set-builder notationIn set theory and its applications to logic, mathematics, and computer science, set-builder notation is a mathematical notation for describing a set by enumerating its elements, or stating the properties that its members must satisfy. Defining sets by properties is also known as set comprehension, set abstraction or as defining a set's intension. Set (mathematics)#Roster notation A set can be described directly by enumerating all of its elements between curly brackets, as in the following two examples: is the set containing the four numbers 3, 7, 15, and 31, and nothing else.
Compile timeIn computer science, compile time (or compile-time) describes the time window during which a language's statements are converted into 0s and 1s for the computer to understand. The term is used as an adjective to describe concepts related to the context of program compilation, as opposed to concepts related to the context of program execution (runtime). For example, compile-time requirements are programming language requirements that must be met by source code before compilation and compile-time properties are properties of the program that can be reasoned about during compilation.
Programme informatiqueUn programme informatique est un ensemble d'instructions et d’opérations destinées à être exécutées par un ordinateur. Un programme source est un code écrit par un informaticien dans un langage de programmation. Il peut être compilé vers une forme binaire ou directement interprété. Un programme binaire décrit les instructions à exécuter par un microprocesseur sous forme numérique. Ces instructions définissent un langage machine.
Program analysisIn computer science, program analysis is the process of automatically analyzing the behavior of computer programs regarding a property such as correctness, robustness, safety and liveness. Program analysis focuses on two major areas: program optimization and program correctness. The first focuses on improving the program’s performance while reducing the resource usage while the latter focuses on ensuring that the program does what it is supposed to do.
