Stoic: Towards Disciplined Capabilities

Martin Odersky, Nada Amin, Sandro Stucki, Fengyun Liu, Paolo Giosuè Giarrusso

Capabilities are widely used in the design of software systems to ensure security. A system of capabilities can become a mess in the presence of objects and functions: objects may leak capabilities and functions may capture capabilities. They make reasonin ...

SoK: Shining Light on Shadow Stacks

Mathias Josef Payer

Control-Flow Hijacking attacks are the dominant attack vector against C/C++ programs. Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) solutions mitigate these attacks on the forward edge, i.e., indirect calls through function pointers and virtual calls. Protecting the backwa ...

Object-Oriented Recovery for Non-volatile Memory

James Richard Larus, Nachshon Cohen, David Teksen Aksun

New non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies enable direct, durable storage of data in an application's heap. Durable, randomly accessible memory facilitates the construction of applications that do not lose data at system shutdown or power failure. Existing ...

Initialization patterns in Dotty

Martin Odersky, Fengyun Liu

Safe object initialization is important to avoid a category of runtime errors in programming languages. In this paper, we provide a case study of the initialization patterns on the Dotty compiler. In particular, we find that calling dynamic-dispatching met ...

Preconditioned Spectral Descent for Deep Learning

Volkan Cevher, Ya-Ping Hsieh, Edo Collins

Deep learning presents notorious computational challenges. These challenges in- clude, but are not limited to, the non-convexity of learning objectives and estimat- ing the quantities needed for optimization algorithms, such as gradients. While we do not a ...

Code-Pointer Integrity

George Candea, Mathias Josef Payer, Volodymyr Kuznetsov

Systems code is often written in low-level languages like C/C++, which offer many benefits but also delegate memory management to programmers. This invites memory safety bugs that attackers can exploit to divert control flow and compromise the system. Depl ...

Spores: A Type-Based Foundation for Closures in the Age of Concurrency and Distribution

Martin Odersky, Philipp Haller, Heather Christine Klug

Functional programming (FP) is regularly touted as the way forward for bringing parallel, concurrent, and distributed programming to the mainstream. The popularity of the rationale behind this viewpoint (immutable data transformed by function application) ...

CafeSat: a Modern SAT Solver for Scala

Régis William Blanc

We present CafeSat, a SAT solver written in the Scala programming language. CafeSat is a modern solver based on DPLL and featuring many state-of-the-art techniques and heuristics. It uses two-watched literals for Boolean constraint propagation, conflict-dr ...

Le foncteur de bi-ensembles des modules de p-permutation

Mélanie Baumann

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, where p is a prime number or 0. Let G be a finite group and ppk(G) be the Grothendieck group of p-permutation kG-modules. If we tensor it with C, then Cppk becomes a C-linear biset functor. Recall ...

Distributed classification of multiple observation sets by consensus

Pascal Frossard, Effrosyni Kokiopoulou

We consider the problem of distributed classification of multiple observations of the same object that are collected in an ad hoc network of vision sensors. Assuming that each sensor captures a different observation of the same object, the problem is to cl ...

Naming Anonymous JavaScript Functions

Claude Petitpierre, Salman Mirghasemi

JavaScript developers create programs by calling functions and they use functions to construct objects. JavaScript development tools need to report to developers about those functions and constructors, for example in debugger call-stacks and in object repr ...

Opis: Reliable Distributed Systems in OCaml

Viktor Kuncak, Dejan Kostic

Concurrency and distribution pose algorithmic and implementation challenges in developing reliable distributed systems, making the field an excellent testbed for evaluating programming language and verification paradigms. Several specialized domain-specifi ...

Exact and Portable Profiling for the JVM Using Bytecode Instruction Counting

This paper presents a novel profiling approach, which is entirely based on program transformation techniques in order to enable exact profiling, preserving complete call stacks, method invocation counters, and bytecode instruction counters. We exploit the ...
