: Entities in engineering design databases need to evolve in both structure and behavior. Such a need is not well addressed by object-oriented data models based on the class concep...
Type and effect systems provide a safe and effective means of programming high-performance parallel computers with a high-level language that integrates both functional and impe...
This paper describes a method of proving strong normalization based on an extension of the conservation theorem. We introduce a structural notion of reduction that we call βS, and...
A polymorphic function is parametric if its behavior does not depend on the type at which it is instantiated. Starting with Reynolds's work, the study of parametricity is typ...
