The Dependency Core Calculus (DCC) is an extension of the computational lambda calculus that was designed in order to capture the notion of dependency that arises in information-f...
We present a procedure for computing normal forms of terms in Abadi and Cardelli’s functional object calculus. Even when equipped with simple types, terms of this calculus are no...
Abstract. There is great interest in applying nominal calculi--computational formalisms that include dynamic name generation--to the problems of programming, specifying, and verify...
We introduce explicit fusions of names. To `fuse' two names is to declare that they may be used interchangeably. An explicit fusion is one that can exist in parallel with som...
