Rust's type system ensures memory safety: well-typed Rust programs are guaranteed to not
exhibit problems such as dangling pointers, data races, and unexpected side effects through …

Combining the actor-model with shared memory for performance is efficient but can
introduce data-races. Existing approaches to static data-race freedom are based on …

Objects model the world, and state is fundamental to a faithful modeling. Engineers use state
machines to understand and reason about state transitions, but programming languages …

Background: Programming language design is not usually informed by empirical studies. In
other fields similar problems have inspired an evidence-based paradigm of practice. Such a …

There are billions of lines of sequential code inside nowadays' software which do not benefit
from the parallelism available in modern multicore architectures. Automatically parallelizing …

Rust is an emergent systems programming language highlighting memory safety through its
Ownership and Borrowing System (OBS). Formalizing OBS in semantics is essential in …

With software's ever-increasing role in human lives, ensuring its correctness is crucial.
Deductive software verification enables formally proving that a program is functionally …

We introduce a novel approach to typestate-oriented programming based on the chemical
metaphor: state and operations on objects are molecules of messages, and state …

In program synthesis there is a well-known trade-off between concise and strong
specifications: if a specification is too verbose, it might be harder to write than the program; if …

Verifying the correctness and reliability of imperative and object-oriented programs is one of
the grand challenges in computer science. In imperative programming models …
