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),…

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,…

Session types are a typing discipline used to formally describe communication-driven applications with the aim of fewer errors and easier debugging later into the life cycle of the software. Protocols at the transport layer such as TCP,…

Multiparty session types (MSTs) are a type-based approach to verifying communication protocols. Central to MSTs is a projection operator: a partial function that maps protocols represented as global types to correct-by-construction…

Session types provide a typing discipline for message-passing systems. However, their theory often assumes an ideal world: one in which everything is reliable and without failures. Yet this is in stark contrast with distributed systems in…

MultiParty Session Types (MPST) provide a useful framework for safe concurrent systems. Mixed choice (enabling a participant to play at the same time the roles of sender and receiver) increases the expressive power of MPST as well as the…

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…
