Multiparty session typing (MPST) is a method to make concurrent programming simpler. The idea is to use type checking to automatically detect safety and liveness violations of implementations relative to specifications. In practice, the…

Multiparty quantum key agreement (MQKA) enables $n \geq 3$ mutually distrustful users to establish a shared secret key through collaborative quantum protocols. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive review where we argue that MQKA is…

Session types are becoming popular and have been integrated in several mainstream programming languages. Nevertheless, while many programming languages consider asynchronous fifo channel communication, the notion of subtyping used in…

Ensuring the correctness of software for communication centric programs is important but challenging. Previous approaches, based on session types, have been intensively investigated over the past decade. They provide a concise way to…

In programming models with a reversible semantics, computational steps can be undone. This paper addresses the integration of reversible semantics into process languages for communication-centric systems equipped with behavioral types. In…

Multiparty Session Types (MPST) provide a type-theoretic foundation for specifying and verifying communication protocols in distributed systems. MPST rely on the notion of global type which specifies the global behaviour and local types,…

We address the question of characterising the well-formedness properties of multiparty session types semantically, i.e., as properties of the semantic model used to interpret types. Choosing Prime Event Structures (PESs) as our semantic…

We show how systems of session types can enforce interactions to be bounded for all typable processes. The type system we propose is based on Lafont's soft linear logic and is strongly inspired by recent works about session types as…

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…

Communicating systems comprise diverse software components across networks. To ensure their robustness, modern programming languages such as Rust provide both strongly typed channels, whose usage is guaranteed to be affine (at most once),…

Session types provide a typing discipline for message-passing systems. However, most session type approaches assume an ideal world: one in which everything is reliable and without failures. Yet this is in stark contrast with distributed…

Secure Multi-Party Computation (SMPC) allows a set of parties to securely compute a functionality in a distributed fashion without the need for any trusted external party. Usually, it is assumed that the parties know each other and have…

We propose the integration of staged metaprogramming into a session-typed message passing functional language. We build on a model of contextual modal type theory with multi-level contexts, where contextual values, closing arbitrary terms…

Session contracts is a formalism enabling to investigate client/server interaction protocols and to interpret session types. We extend session contracts in order to represent outputs whose actual sending in an interaction depends on a third…

Multiparty computation is raising importance because it's primary objective is to replace any trusted third party in the distributed computation. This work presents two multiparty shuffling protocols where each party, possesses a private…

Global session types prevent participants from waiting for never coming messages. Some interactions take place just for the purpose of informing receivers that some message will never arrive or the session is terminated. By decomposing a…

This paper presents the first implementation of session types in a dynamically-typed language - Python. Communication safety of the whole system is guaranteed at runtime by monitors that check the execution traces comply with an associated…

Session is an open-source, public-key-based secure messaging application which uses a set of decentralised storage servers and an onion routing protocol to send end-to-end encrypted messages with minimal exposure of user metadata. It does…
