Threesomes, With and Without Blame
Abstract. The blame calculus of Wadler and Findler gives a high-level semantics to casts in higher-order languages. The coercion calculus of Henglein, on the other hand, provides a...

Contracts Made Manifest
Since Findler and Felleisen [2002] introduced higher-order contracts, many variants have been proposed. Broadly, these fall into two groups: some follow Findler and Felleisen in u...

Dependent types and program equivalence
The definition of type equivalence is one of the most important design issues for any typed language. In dependentlytyped languages, because terms appear in types, this definition...

Structuring the verification of heap-manipulating programs
Most systems based on separation logic consider only restricted forms of implication or non-separating conjunction, as full support for these connectives requires a non-trivial no...

Static Determination of Quantitative Resource Usage for Higher-Order Programs
We describe a new automatic static analysis for determining upper-bound functions on the use of quantitative resources for strict, higher-order, polymorphic, recursive programs de...
