We give a denotational semantics to a region-based effect system tracking reading, writing and allocation in a higher-order language with dynamically allocated integer references....

We describe an algorithm for synthesizing resource invariants that are used in the verification of concurrent programs. This synthesis employs bi-abductive inference to identify t...

In this paper we extend the model of program variables from the Refinement Calculus [2] in order to be able to reason more algebraically about recursive procedures with parameter...
Modeling four aspect-oriented programming mechanisms shows the way in which each supports modular crosscutting. Comparing the models produces a clear three part characterization of...
Procedure extraction is an important program transformation that can be used to make programs easier to understand and maintain, to facilitate code reuse, and to convert “monoli...
