Proof-carrying code provides a mechanism for insuring that a host, or code consumer, can safely run code delivered by a code producer. The host specifies a safety policy as a set ...

Array updates in single assignment languages generally require some copying of the array, and thus tend to be more expensive than in imperative languages. As a result, programs in...
