The success of software verification depends on the ability to find a suitable abstraction of a program automatically. We propose a new method for automated abstraction refinement, which overcomes the inherent limitations of predicate discovery schemes. In ...
In this paper we design a language and runtime support for isolation-only, multithreaded transactions (called tasks). Tasks allow isolation to be declared instead of having to be encoded using the low-level synchronization constructs. The key concept of ou ...
Scala is a new programming language developed at EPFL and incorporating the most important concepts of object-oriented and functional languages. It aims at integrating well with the Java and .NET platforms: their respective libraries are accessible without ...
Generic types in C# behave invariantly with respect to subtyping. We propose a system of type-safe variance for C# that supports the declaration of covariant and contravariant type parameters on generic types. To support more widespread application of vari ...
Many software model checkers are based on predicate abstraction. If the verification goal depends on pointer structures, the approach does not work well, because it is difficult to find adequate predicate abstractions for the heap. In contrast, shape analy ...
This paper studies the interplay between inner classes and virtual types. The combination of these two concepts can be observed in object-oriented languages like Beta or Scala. This study is based on a calculus of classes and objects composed of a very lim ...
We identify three programming language abstractions for the construction of reusable components: abstract type members, explicit selftypes, and modular mixin composition. Together, these abstractions enable us to transform an arbitrary assembly of static p ...
With the growing demand for software systems that can cope with an increasing range of information processing tasks, the reuse of code from existing systems is essential to reduce the production costs of systems as well as the time to manufacture new softw ...
In this paper we design a language and runtime support for isolation-only, multithreaded transactions (called tasks) that are intended for time-critical systems. The key concept of our design is the use of a type system to support rollback-free and safe ru ...
Programming efficient and reliable code can be considered a non-trivial task, as it requires deep understanding of the problem to be solved along with good programming skills. However, software frameworks and programming paradigms can provide a dependable ...
