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 have been proposed as a means of statically verifying implementations of communication protocols. Although prior work has been successful in verifying some classes of protocols, it does not cope well with parameterized,…

The paper presents a data-driven model of self-adaptivity for multiparty sessions. System choreography is prescribed by a global type. Participants are incarnated by processes associated with monitors, which control their behaviour. Each…

Session types are a type-based approach to the verification of message-passing programs. They specify communication structures essential to enforcing program correctness; by relying on sequencing constructs, a session type can precisely…

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…

Session types enable the specification and verification of communicating systems. However, their theory often assumes that processes never fail. To address this limitation, we present a generalised multiparty session type (MPST) theory with…

The additional complexity caused by concurrently communicating processes in distributed systems render the verification of such systems into a very hard problem. Multiparty session types were developed to govern communication and…

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…

Human fallibility, unpredictable operating environments, and the heterogeneity of hardware devices are driving the need for software to be able to adapt as seen in the Internet of Things or telecommunication networks. Unfortunately,…

Designing and analysing multiparty distributed interactions can be achieved either by means of a global view (e.g. in choreography-based approaches) or by composing available computational entities (e.g. in service orchestration). This…

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…

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…

Session types are behavioural types for guaranteeing that concurrent programs are free from basic communication errors. Recent work has shown that asynchronous session subtyping is undecidable. However, since session types have become…

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…

Session types are widely used as abstractions of asynchronous message passing systems. Refinement for such abstractions is crucial as it allows improvements of a given component without compromising its compatibility with the rest of the…
