Session types define protocols that processes must follow when communicating. The special case of binary session types, i.e. type annotations of protocols between two parties, is known to be in a propositions-as-types correspondence with…

We tackle the problem of statically ensuring that message-passing programs never run into deadlocks. We focus on concurrent functional programs governed by context-free session types, which can express rich tree-like structures not…

Session types describe the structure of communications implemented by channels. In particular, they prescribe the sequence of communications, whether they are input or output actions, and the type of value exchanged. Crucial to any language…

Modern web applications combine persistent state updates, concurrent interactions, and unreliable communication with external services. Failures such as timeouts can occur after partial state changes, producing temporary inconsistencies…

The notion of subtyping has gained an important role both in theoretical and applicative domains: in lambda and concurrent calculi as well as in programming languages. The soundness and the completeness, together referred to as the…

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…

Information flow control type systems statically restrict the propagation of sensitive data to ensure end-to-end confidentiality. The property to be shown is noninterference, asserting that an attacker cannot infer any secrets from made…

Multiparty session types are designed to abstractly capture the structure of communication protocols and verify behavioural properties. One important such property is progress, i.e., the absence of deadlock. Distributed algorithms often…

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,…

Communicating state machines provide a formal foundation for distributed computation. Unfortunately, they are Turing-complete and, thus, challenging to analyse. In this paper, we classify restrictions on channels which have been proposed to…

Multi-party Conversational Systems are systems with natural language interaction between one or more people or systems. From the moment that an utterance is sent to a group, to the moment that it is replied in the group by a member, several…

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 consider a calculus for multiparty sessions enriched with security levels for messages. We propose a monitored semantics for this calculus, which blocks the execution of processes as soon as they attempt to leak information. We…

Message passing is a fundamental element in software development, ranging from concurrent and mobile computing to distributed services, but it suffers from communication errors such as deadlocks. Session types are a typing discipline for…

Multiparty Session Types (MPST) is a typing discipline for communication protocols. It ensures the absence of communication errors and deadlocks for well-typed communicating processes. The state-of-the-art implementations of the MPST theory…

We present Multiparty Classical Choreographies (MCC), a language model where global descriptions of communicating systems (choreographies) implement typed multiparty sessions. Typing is achieved by generalising classical linear logic to…

Sessions are a fundamental notion in message-passing systems. A session is an abstract notion of communication between parties where each one owns an endpoint. Session types are types that are assigned to the endpoints and that are used to…

Objects and actors are communicating state machines, offering and consuming different services at different points in their lifecycle. Two complementary challenges arise when programming such systems. When objects interact, their state…

Session types are a type-based approach to the verification of message-passing programs. They have been much studied as type systems for the pi-calculus and for languages such as Java. A session type specifies what and when should be…
