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 ...

From C/C plus plus Code to High-Performance Dataflow Circuits

Paolo Ienne, Andrea Guerrieri, Lana Josipovic

High-level synthesis (HLS) tools typically generate statically scheduled datapaths. Static scheduling implies that the resulting circuits have a hard time exploiting parallelism in code with potential memory dependences, with control dependences, or where ...

Virtual ADTs for Portable Metaprogramming

Martin Odersky, Nicolas Alexander Stucki

Scala 3 provides a metaprogramming interface that represents the abstract syntax tree definitions using algebraic data types. To allow the compiler to freely evolve without breaking the metaprogramming interface, we present virtual algebraic data types (or ...

Proving and Disproving Equivalence of Functional Programming Assignments

Viktor Kuncak, Dragana Milovancevic

We present an automated approach to verify the correctness of programming assignments, such as the ones that arise in a functional programming course. Our approach takes as input student submissions and reference solutions, and uses equivalence checking to ...

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 ...

Just-in-time performance without warm-up

Denys Shabalin

Scala has been developed as a language that deeply integrates with the Java ecosystem. It offers seamless interoperability with existing Java libraries. Since the Scala compiler targets Java bytecode, Scala programs have access to high-performance runtimes ...

A Practical Unification of Multi-stage Programming and Macros

Martin Odersky, Nicolas Alexander Stucki

Program generation is indispensable. We propose a novel unification of two existing metaprogramming techniques: multi-stage programming and hygienic generative macros. The former supports runtime code generation and execution in a type-safe manner while th ...

Unifying Analytic and Statically-Typed Quasiquotes

Christoph Koch, Amir Shaikhha, Lionel Emile Vincent Parreaux

Metaprograms are programs that manipulate (generate, analyze and evaluate) other programs. These tasks are greatly facilitated by quasiquotation, a technique to construct and deconstruct program fragments using quoted code templates expressed in the syntax ...

Squid: Type-Safe, Hygienic, and Reusable Quasiquotes

Christoph Koch, Amir Shaikhha, Lionel Emile Vincent Parreaux

Quasiquotes have been shown to greatly simplify the task of metaprogramming. This is in part because they hide the data structures of the intermediate representation (IR), instead allowing metaprogrammers to use the concrete syntax of the language they man ...

Unification of Compile-Time and Runtime Metaprogramming in Scala

Eugene Burmako

Metaprogramming is a technique that consists in writing programs that treat other programs as data. This paradigm of software development contributes to a multitude of approaches that improve programmer productivity, including code generation, program anal ...

Building Efficient Query Engines using High-Level Languages

Ioannis Klonatos

We are currently witnessing a shift towards the use of high-level programming languages for systems development. These approaches collide with the traditional wisdom which calls for using low-level languages for building efficient software systems. This sh ...

Deductive Synthesis and Repair

Etienne Kneuss

In this thesis, we explore techniques for the development of recursive functional programs over unbounded domains that are proved correct according to their high-level specifications. We present algorithms for automatically synthesizing executable code, st ...

Translating Scala Programs to Isabelle/HOL, Automated Reasoning

Viktor Kuncak

We present a trustworthy connection between the Leon verification system and the Isabelle proof assistant. Leon is a system for verifying functional Scala programs. It uses a variety of automated theorem provers (ATPs) to check verification conditions (VCs ...

Functional Pearl: A SQL to C Compiler in 500 Lines of Code

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

We present the design and implementation of a SQL query processor that outperforms existing database systems and is written in just about 500 lines of Scala code - a convincing case study that high-level functional programming can handily beat C for system ...

Yin-yang: concealing the deep embedding of DSLs

Christoph Koch, Martin Odersky, Vojin Jovanovic, Sandro Stucki, Amir Shaikhha

Deeply embedded domain-specific languages (EDSLs) intrinsically compromise programmer experience for improved program performance. Shallow EDSLs complement them by trading program performance for good programmer experience. We present Yin-Yang, a framework ...

Surgical Precision JIT Compilers

Tiark Rompf

Just-in-time (JIT) compilation of running programs provides more optimization opportunities than offline compilation. Modern JIT compilers, such as those in virtual machines like Oracle's HotSpot for Java or Google's V8 for JavaScript, rely on dynamic prof ...

Accelerating parser combinators with macros

Manohar Jonnalagedda, Eric Beguet

Parser combinators provide an elegant way of writing parsers: parser implementations closely follow the structure of the underlying grammar, while accommodating interleaved host language code for data processing. However, the host language features used fo ...

Spiral in Scala: Towards the Systematic Construction of Generators for Performance Libraries

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf

Program generators for high performance libraries are an appealing solution to the recurring problem of porting and optimizing code with every new processor generation, but only few such generators exist to date. This is due to not only the difficulty of t ...

Forge: Generating a High Performance DSL Implementation from a Declarative Specification

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf

Domain-specific languages provide a promising path to automatically compile high-level code to parallel, heterogeneous, and distributed hardware. However, in practice high performance DSLs still require considerable software expertise to develop and force ...
