Multiparty session types (MPST) are a type-based approach for specifying message-passing distributed systems. They rely on the notion of global type specifying the global behaviour and local types, which are the projections of the global…

Programs are more distributed and concurrent today than ever before, and structural communications are at the core. Constructing and debugging such programs are hard due to the lack of formal specification/verification of concurrency. This…

We present a framework for the distributed monitoring of networks of components that coordinate by message-passing, following multiparty session protocols specified as global types. We improve over prior works by (i) supporting components…

We study the notion of subtyping for session types in a logical setting, where session types are propositions of multiplicative/additive linear logic extended with least and greatest fixed points. The resulting subtyping relation admits a…

Session types provide a principled approach to typed communication protocols that guarantee type safety and protocol fidelity. Formalizations of session-typed communication are typically based on process calculi, concurrent lambda calculi,…

Nowadays, interactive technologies are used almost everywhere. As a result, designers need to increasingly make them "socially acceptable". Previous work recommends "subtle" forms of interaction to increase social acceptability and avoid…

Session types, types for structuring communication between endpoints in distributed systems, are recently being integrated into mainstream programming languages. In practice, a very important notion for dealing with such types is that of…

To celebrate the 30th edition of EXPRESS and the 20th edition of SOS we overview how session types can be expressed in a type theory for the standard $\pi$-calculus by means of a suitable encoding. The encoding allows one to reuse results…

Multiparty session types (MST) are a well-established type theory that describes the interactive structure of a fixed number of components from a global point of view and type-checks the components through projection of the global type onto…

Session types are a typed approach to message-passing concurrency, where types describe sequences of intended exchanges over channels. Session type systems have been given strong logical foundations via Curry-Howard correspondences with…

Compositional methods are central to the development and verification of software systems. They allow to break down large systems into smaller components, while enabling reasoning about the behaviour of the composed system. For concurrent…

Prior work has extended the deep, logical connection between the linear sequent calculus and session-typed message-passing concurrent computation with equi-recursive types and a natural notion of subtyping. In this paper, we extend this…
