We describe a process calculus featuring high level constructs for component-oriented programming in a distributed setting. We propose an extension of the higher-order pi-calculus intended to capture several important mechanisms related to component-based programming, such as dynamic update, reconfiguration and code migration. In this paper, we are primarily concerned with the possibility to build a distributed implementation of our calculus. Accordingly, we define a low-level calculus, that describes how the high-level constructs are implemented, as well as details of the data structures manipulated at runtime. We also discuss current and future directions of research in relation to our analysis of component-based programming.

Comparison of concurrent programming languages and correctness of program transformations in concurrency are the focus of this research. As criterion we use contextual semantics adapted to concurrency, where may -- as well as should -- convergence ar e observed. We investigate the relation between the synchronous pi-calculus and a core language of Concurrent Haskell (CH). The contextual semantics is on the one hand forgiving with respect to the details of the operational semantics, and on the other hand implies strong requirements for the interplay between the processes after translation. Our result is that CH embraces the synchronous pi-calculus. Our main task is to find and prove correctness of encodings of pi-calculus channels by CHs concurrency primitives, which are MVars. They behave like (blocking) 1-place buffers modelling the shared-memory. The first developed translation uses an extra private MVar for every communication.We also automatically generate and check potentially correct translations that reuse the MVars where one MVar contains the message and two additional MVars for synchronization are used to model the synchronized communication of a single channel in the pi-calculus.Our automated experimental results lead to the conjecture that one additional MVar is insufficient.

We study whether, in the pi-calculus, the match prefix-a conditional operator testing two names for (syntactic) equality-is expressible via the other operators. Previously, Carbone and Maffeis proved that matching is not expressible this way under ra ther strong requirements (preservation and reflection of observables). Later on, Gorla developed a by now widely-tested set of criteria for encodings that allows much more freedom (e.g. instead of direct translations of observables it allows comparison of calculi with respect to reachability of successful states). In this paper, we offer a considerably stronger separation result on the non-expressibility of matching using only Gorlas relaxed requirements.

This paper shows connections between command injection attacks, continuations, and the Lambek calculus: certain command injections, such as the tautology attack on SQL, are shown to be a form of control effect that can be typed using the Lambek calcu lus, generalizing the double-negation typing of continuations. Lambeks syntactic calculus is a logic with two implicational connectives taking their arguments from the left and right, respectively. These connectives describe how strings interact with their left and right contexts when building up syntactic structures. The calculus is a form of propositional logic without structural rules, and so a forerunner of substructural logics like Linear Logic and Separation Logic.

We propose an extension of the join calculus with pattern matching on algebraic data types. Our initial motivation is twofold: to provide an intuitive semantics of the interaction between concurrency and pattern matching; to define a practical compil ation scheme from extended join definitions into ordinary ones plus ML pattern matching. To assess the correctness of our compilation scheme, we develop a theory of the applied join calculus, a calculus with value passing and value matching. We implement this calculus as an extension of the current JoCaml system.
We introduce a method for proving almost sure termination in the context of lambda calculus with continuous random sampling and explicit recursion, based on ranking supermartingales. This result is extended in three ways. Antitone ranking functions h ave weaker restrictions on how fast they must decrease, and are applicable to a wider range of programs. Sparse ranking functions take values only at a subset of the programs reachable states, so they are simpler to define and more flexible. Ranking functions with respect to alternative reduction strategies give yet more flexibility, and significantly increase the applicability of the ranking supermartingale approach to proving almost sure termination, thanks to a novel (restricted) confluence result which is of independent interest. The notion of antitone ranking function was inspired by similar work by McIver, Morgan, Kaminski and Katoen in the setting of a first-order imperative language, but adapted to a higher-order functional language. The sparse ranking function and confluent semantics extensions are unique to the higher-order setting. Our methods can be used to prove almost sure termination of programs that are beyond the reach of methods in the literature, including higher-order and non-affine recursion.
