We introduce a novel resource analysis for typed term rewrite systems based on a potential-based type system. This type system gives rise to polynomial bounds on the innermost runtime complexity. We relate the thus obtained amortised…

Session types are widely used as abstractions of asynchronous message passing systems. Refinement for such abstractions is crucial as it allows improvements of a given component without compromising its compatibility with the rest of the…

Linear logic provides a framework to control the complexity of higher-order functional programs. We present an extension of this framework to programs with multithreading and side effects focusing on the case of elementary time. Our main…

This work introduces the novel concept of kind refinement, which we develop in the context of an explicitly polymorphic ML-like language with type-level computation. Just as type refinements embed rich specifications by means of…

Affine type systems are substructural type systems where copying of information is restricted, but discarding of information is permissible at all types. Such type systems are well-suited for describing quantum programming languages,…

We consider the problem of automatically proving resource bounds. That is, we study how to prove that an integer-valued resource variable is bounded by a given program expression. Automatic resource-bound analysis has recently received…

The paper extends core results of behavioral systems theory from linear to affine time-invariant systems. We characterize the behavior of affine time-invariant systems via kernel, input-output, state-space, and finite-horizon data-driven…

Type-based amortised resource analysis following Hofmann and Jost---where resources are associated with individual elements of data structures and doled out to the programmer under a linear typing discipline---have been successful in…

The Automatic Amortized Resource Analysis (AARA) derives program-execution cost bounds using types. To do so, AARA often makes use of cost-free types, which are critical for the composition of types and cost bounds. However, inferring…

We introduce a type system for the Quipper language designed to derive upper bounds on the size of the circuits produced by the typed program. This size can be measured according to various metrics, including width, depth and gate count,…

Session types capture precise protocol structure in concurrent programming, but do not specify properties of the exchanged values beyond their basic type. Refinement types are a form of dependent types that can address this limitation,…
