Scalable Metaprogramming in Scala 3

Nicolas Alexander Stucki

A metaprogrammer should be able to reason about the semantics of the generated code. Multi-stage programming introduced an elegant and powerful solution to this problem. It follows a semantically driven approach to code generation, where semantics are full ...

Scaling Language Features for Program Verification

Georg Stefan Schmid

Formal verification of real-world software systems remains challenging for a number of reasons, including lack of automation, friction in specifying properties, and limited support for the diverse programming paradigms used in industry. In this thesis we m ...

Enclosure: Language-Based Restriction of Untrusted Libraries

Mathias Josef Payer, James Richard Larus, Edouard Bugnion, Evangelos Marios Kogias, Adrien Ghosn

Programming languages and systems have failed to address the security implications of the increasingly frequent use of public libraries to construct modern software. Most languages provide tools and online repositories to publish, import, and use libraries ...

Minimal mass design of active tensegrity structures

Yafeng Wang

Tensegrity structures have been widely utilized as lightweight structures due to their high stiffness-to-mass and strength-to-mass ratios. Minimal mass design of tensegrity structures subject to external loads and specific constraints (e.g., member yieldin ...

Exploiting Errors for Efficiency: A Survey from Circuits to Applications

Babak Falsafi, Alexandros Daglis, Dorde Jevdic, Eva Darulova, Mattia Cacciotti

When a computational task tolerates a relaxation of its specification or when an algorithm tolerates the effects of noise in its execution, hardware, system software, and programming language compilers or their runtime systems can trade deviations from cor ...

Semantics-preserving inlining for metaprogramming

Martin Odersky, Nicolas Alexander Stucki, Sébastien Jean Robert Doeraene, Angelos Bimpoudis

Inlining is used in many different ways in programming languages: some languages use it as a compiler-directive solely for optimization, some use it as a metaprogramming feature, and others lay their design in-between. This paper presents inlining through ...

Type-Safe Metaprogramming and Compilation Techniques For Designing Efficient Systems in High-Level Languages

Lionel Emile Vincent Parreaux

Software engineering practices have been steadily moving towards higher-level programming languages and away from lower-level ones. High-level languages tend to greatly improve safety, productivity, and code maintainability because they handle various impl ...

Cross-Platform Language Design

Sébastien Jean Robert Doeraene

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 ...

Adversarially Robust Optimization with Gaussian Processes

Volkan Cevher, Jonathan Mark Scarlett, Ilija Bogunovic

In this paper, we consider the problem of Gaussian process (GP) optimization with an added robustness requirement: The returned point may be perturbed by an adversary, and we require the function value to remain as high as possible even after this perturba ...

Verification by Reduction to Functional Programs

Régis William Blanc

In this thesis, we explore techniques for the development and verification of programs in a high-level, expressive, and safe programming language. Our programs can express problems over unbounded domains and over recursive and mutable data structures. We p ...

Quoted Staged Rewriting: A Practical Approach to Library-Defined Optimizations

Christoph Koch, Amir Shaikhha, Lionel Emile Vincent Parreaux

Staging has proved a successful technique for programmatically removing code abstractions, thereby allowing for faster program execution while retaining a high-level interface for the programmer. Unfortunately, techniques based on staging suffer from a num ...

LMS-Verify: Abstraction without Regret for Verified Systems Programming’

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

Performance critical software is almost always developed in C, as programmers do not trust high-level languages to deliver the same reliable performance. This is bad because low-level code in unsafe languages attracts security vulnerabilities and because d ...

Semantics-Driven Interoperability between Scala.js and JavaScript

Nicolas Alexander Stucki, Sébastien Jean Robert Doeraene, Tobias Schlatter

Hundreds of programming languages compile to JavaScript. Yet, most of them fail, at one level or another, to provide satisfactory interoperability with JavaScript APIs. This is limiting, as interoperability is at least required to manipulate web pages thro ...

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 ...

Studies of charmed strange baryons in the Lambda D final state at Belle

Olivier Schneider, Chao Wang, Yiming Li, Ho Ling Li, Sun Hee Kim, Tara Nanut, Jun Yong Kim

We report the discovery of Xi(c)(3055)(0), observed by its decay into the final-state Lambda D-0, and present the first observation and evidence of the decays of Xi(c)(3055)(+) and Xi(c)(3080)(+) into Lambda D+. We also perform a combined analysis of the L ...

RRB Vector: A Practical General Purpose Immutable Sequence

State-of-the-art immutable collections have wildly differing performance characteristics across their operations, often forcing programmers to choose different collection implementations for each task. Thus, changes to the program can invalidate the choice ...
