We present a variant of Proof-Carrying Code (PCC) in which the trusted inference rules are represented as a higher-order logic program, the proof checker is replaced by a nondeter...
Motivated by applications to proof assistants based on dependent types, we develop and prove correct a strong reducer and equivalence checker for the -calculus with products, sums...
Distributed programming has become a topic of widespread interest, and many programmers now wrestle with tradeoffs between data consistency, availability and latency. Distributed...
