Multiparty session types (MPST) are a robust typing framework that ensures safe and deadlock-free communication within distributed protocols. As these protocols grow in complexity, compositional modelling becomes increasingly important to…

Multiparty Session Types (MPSTs) offer a structured way of specifying communication protocols and guarantee relevant communication properties, such as deadlock-freedom. In this paper, we extend a minimal MPST system with quantum data and…

Replication is an alternative construct to recursion for describing infinite behaviours in the pi-calculus. In this paper we explore the implications of including type-level replication in Multiparty Session Types (MPST), a behavioural type…

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…

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…

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…

Protocols provide the unifying glue in concurrent and distributed software today; verifying that message-passing programs conform to such governing protocols is important but difficult. Static approaches based on multiparty session types…

Multiparty session types (MSTs) provide efficient means to specify and verify asynchronous message-passing systems. For a global type, which specifies all interactions between roles in a system, the implementability problem asks whether…

Multiparty session types (MP) are a type discipline for enforcing the structured, deadlock-free communication of concurrent and message-passing programs. Traditional MP have a limited form of choice in which alternative communication…

Session types are a discipline for the static verification of message-passing programs. A session type specifies a channel's protocol as sequences of exchanges. It is most relevant to investigate session-based concurrency by identifying the…
