Communicating quantum processes
We define a language CQP (Communicating Quantum Processes) for modelling systems which combine quantum and classical communication and computation. CQP combines the communication ...

Dynamic partial-order reduction for model checking software
We present a new approach to partial-order reduction for model checking software. This approach is based on initially exploring an arbitrary interleaving of the various concurrent...

Transactors: a programming model for maintaining globally consistent distributed state in unreliable environments
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...

Environmental acquisition revisited
In 1996, Gil and Lorenz proposed programming language constructs for specifying environmental acquisition in addition to inheritance acquisition for objects. They noticed that in ...

A simple typed intermediate language for object-oriented languages
Traditional class and object encodings are difficult to use in practical type-preserving compilers because of the complexity of the encodings. We propose a simple typed intermedia...

Associated types with class
Haskell's type classes allow ad-hoc overloading, or typeindexing, of functions. A natural generalisation is to allow type-indexing of data types as well. It turns out that th...

Downgrading policies and relaxed noninterference
In traditional information-flow type systems, the security policy is often formalized as noninterference properties. However, noninterference alone is too strong to express securi...

Connecting effects and uniqueness with adoption
Abstract. In a previous paper, we discussed how the concepts of uniqueness and effects are interdependent. In this paper, we show how "Adoption and Focus," a proposal for...

Permission accounting in separation logic
A lightweight logical approach to race-free sharing of heap storage between concurrent threads is described, based on the notion of permission to access. Transfer of permission be...

Polymorphic bytecode: compositional compilation for Java-like languages
We define compositional compilation as the ability to typecheck source code fragments in isolation, generate corresponding binaries, and link together fragments whose mutual assum...
