We introduce transactors, a fault-tolerant programming model for composing loosely-coupled distributed components running in an unreliable environment such as the internet into sy...
Abstract. Inspired by the early visual system of many mammalians we consider the construction of-and reconstruction from- an orientation score Uf : R2 ×S1 → C as a local orienta...
In setting up a formal system to specify a grammar formalism, the conventional (mathematical) wisdom is to start with primitives (basic primitive structures) as simple as possible...
ML modules are a powerful language mechanism for decomposing programs into reusable components. Unfortunately, they also have a reputation for being “complex” and requiring fa...
Abstract. There is something of a discontinuity at the heart of popular tactical theorem provers. Low-level, fully-checked mechanical proofs are large trees consisting of primitive...
