Systems programs rely on fine-grain control of data representation and use of state to achieve performance, conformance to hardware specification, and temporal predictability. T...
This paper introduces a new type system designed for safe systems programming. The type system features a new mutability model that combines unboxed types with a consistent typing ...

Abstract. We present a constraint system OF of feature trees that is appropriate to specify and implement type inference for first-class messages. OF extends traditional systems of...
An important implementation decision in polymorphically typed functional programming languages is whether to represent data in boxed or unboxed form and when to transform them fro...
This paper studies, for the first time, the management of type information for an important class of semi-structured data: nested DAGs (Directed Acyclic Graphs) that describe exec...
