Many opportunities for easy, big-win, program optimizations are missed by compilers. This is especially true in highly layered Java applications. Often at the heart of these misse...

We present an analysis to automatically determine if a program represents a continuous function, or equivalently, if infinitesimal changes to its inputs can only cause infinitesim...
Asynchronous systems components are hard to write, hard to reason about, and (not coincidentally) hard to mechanically verify. In order to achieve high performance, asynchronous c...
