Modular Choreographies: Bridging Alice and Bob Notation to Java

Authors: Luís Cruz-Filipe, Anne Madsen, Fabrizio Montesi, and Marco Peressotti

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 111, Joint Post-proceedings of the Third and Fourth International Conference on Microservices (Microservices 2020/2022)


Abstract
We present Modular Choreographies, a new choreographic programming language that features modular functions. Modular Choreographies is aimed at simplicity: its communication abstraction follows the simple tradition from the "Alice and Bob" notation. We develop a compiler toolchain that translates choreographies into modular Java libraries, which developers can use to participate correctly in choreographies. The key novelty is to compile through the Choral language, which was previously proposed to define object-oriented choreographies: our toolchain compiles Modular Choreographies to Choral, and then leverages the existing Choral compiler to generate Java code. Our work is the first to bridge the simplicity of traditional choreographic programming languages with the requirement of generating modular libraries in a mainstream language (Java).

Early Ideas
CRDTs, Coalgebraically (Early Ideas)

Authors: Nathan Liittschwager, Stelios Tsampas, Jonathan Castello, and Lindsey Kuper

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 270, 10th Conference on Algebra and Coalgebra in Computer Science (CALCO 2023)


Abstract
We describe ongoing work that models conflict-free replicated data types (CRDTs) from a coalgebraic point of view. CRDTs are data structures designed for replication across multiple physical locations in a distributed system. We show how to model a CRDT at the local replica level using a novel coalgebraic semantics for CRDTs. We believe this is the first step towards presenting a unified theory for specifying and verifying CRDTs and replicated state machines. As a case study, we consider emulation of CRDTs in terms of coalgebra.

Short Paper
Large Language Models: Compilers for the 4^{th} Generation of Programming Languages? (Short Paper)

Authors: Francisco S. Marcondes, José João Almeida, and Paulo Novais

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 113, 12th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2023)


Abstract
This paper explores the possibility of large language models as a fourth generation programming language compiler. This is based on the idea that large language models are able to translate a natural language specification into a program written in a particular programming language. In other words, just as high-level languages provided an additional language abstraction to assembly code, large language models can provide an additional language abstraction to high-level languages. This interpretation allows large language models to be thought of through the lens of compiler theory, leading to insightful conclusions.

Towards a Universal and Interoperable Scientific Data Model

Authors: João Oliveira, Diogo Gomes, Francisca Santana, Jorge Oliveira e Sá, and Filipe Portela

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 113, 12th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2023)


Abstract
The growing number of researchers in Portugal has intensified the appearance of several scientific platforms that allow the indexation of publications and the management of scientific profiles. The diversity and high number of platforms brings problems at the level of crossover and integrity of the information, i.e., the researchers’ profiles are rarely updated, and their data are not properly grouped and cross-referenced. Hence, the need arises for a more global platform that enables the synchronization of information, free from constraints imposed by existing data.The study and work carried out aims to solve this problem by creating a robust and interoperable platform based on an innovative library merge algorithm. Thus, this platform includes information regarding publications, researchers and scientific indicators, by crossing and grouping data from several platforms.

Integrating Gamified Educational Escape Rooms in Learning Management Systems (Short Paper)

Authors: Ricardo Queirós, Carla Pinto, Mário Cruz, and Daniela Mascarenhas

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 113, 12th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2023)


Abstract
Escape rooms offer an immersive and engaging learning experience that encourages critical thinking, problem solving and teamwork. Although they have shown promising results in promoting student engagement in the teaching-learning process, they continue to operate as independent systems that are not fully integrated into educational environments. This work aims to detail the integration of educational escape rooms, based on international standards, with the typical central component of an educational setting - the learning management system (LMS). In order to proof this concept, we present the integration of a math escape room with the Moodle LMS using the Learning Tools Interoperability (LTI) specification. Currently, this specification comprises a set of Web services that enable seamless integration between learning platforms and external tools and is not limited to any specific LMS which fosters learning interoperability. With this implementation, a single sign-on ecosystem is created, where teachers and students can interact in a simple and immersive way. The major contribution of this work is to serve as an integration guide for other applications and in different domains.

Romaria De Nª Srª D'Agonia: Building a Digital Repository and a Virtual Museum

Authors: Sara Cristina Freitas Queirós, Cristiana Araújo, and Pedro Rangel Henriques

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 113, 12th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2023)


Abstract
Romarias are Christian pilgrimages that occur in order to celebrate a specific saint. Romaria de Nª Srª d'Agonia (RNS Agonia, for short) occurs aimed at celebrating Nossa Senhora da Agonia, patron of all Fishermen, at Viana do Castelo, Portugal. RNS Agonia is a very old event that surely belongs to the Minho’s Cultural Heritage. There are many written documents, of various types, that describe the event; so, their digital preservation is mandatory. However, digital preservation is not restricted to a database of digital images obtained by scanning the documents. In this paper we are concerned with digital repositories of XML-based annotated documents from which we can extract automatically data to build a virtual museum that helps on disseminating information about RNS Agonia. Such a Web resource is crucial to support people wishing to know more about that pilgrimage, and also as a booster for tourism. The paper describes the different stages of this project, including the documents annotation process, data extraction mechanisms, the creation of a triple storage to archive the knowledge built from the sources analyzed, and the virtual museum implementation. The methodological approach devised for the project under discussion is based on the creation of an ontology that describes the RNS Agonia domain completely. The idea is to define the XML dialect, to be used in the annotation, from the ontology. Moreover the ontology will also lead the definition of the triple store used to set up the knowledge base that feeds the museum.

A New Approach to Perform Individual Assessments at Higher Education Using Gamification Systems

Authors: Filipe Portela

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 112, 4th International Computer Programming Education Conference (ICPEC 2023)


Abstract
Assessment is a crucial element of the educational process, but traditional pen-and-paper tests have limitations in promoting active learning and engagement. To address this challenge, the use of online gamification platforms has increased. In this context, this study explores the effectiveness of Kahoot! for assessment exercises (AE) in higher education. These experiments occurred over three years, included five courses with computer science subjects and had 507 participants. Overall, 97.04% of students achieved a grade higher than ten, and only four failed. The results show that Kahoot! can promote engagement, motivation, and learning outcomes, and its use is well-received by students - 78.70% of students enjoyed this approach, and only 8.68% of participants disliked it. The study’s findings provide valuable insights into using Kahoot! as Student Response System for testing in higher education, with implications for developing new and innovative approaches to assessment and evaluation.

Now It Compiles! Certified Automatic Repair of Uncompilable Protocols

Authors: Luís Cruz-Filipe and Fabrizio Montesi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 268, 14th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2023)


Abstract
Choreographic programming is a paradigm where developers write the global specification (called choreography) of a communicating system, and then a correct-by-construction distributed implementation is compiled automatically. Unfortunately, it is possible to write choreographies that cannot be compiled, because of issues related to an agreement property known as knowledge of choice. This forces programmers to reason manually about implementation details that may be orthogonal to the protocol that they are writing. Amendment is an automatic procedure for repairing uncompilable choreographies. We present a formalisation of amendment from the literature, built upon an existing formalisation of choreographic programming. However, in the process of formalising the expected properties of this procedure, we discovered a subtle counterexample that invalidates the original published and peer-reviewed pen-and-paper theory. We discuss how using a theorem prover led us to both finding the issue, and stating and proving a correct formulation of the properties of amendment.

Modular Compilation for Higher-Order Functional Choreographies

Authors: Luís Cruz-Filipe, Eva Graversen, Lovro Lugović, Fabrizio Montesi, and Marco Peressotti

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 263, 37th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2023)


Abstract
Choreographic programming is a paradigm for concurrent and distributed software, whereby descriptions of the intended communications (choreographies) are automatically compiled into distributed code with strong safety and liveness properties (e.g., deadlock-freedom). Recent efforts tried to combine the theories of choreographic programming and higher-order functional programming, in order to integrate the benefits of the former with the modularity of the latter. However, they do not offer a satisfactory theory of compilation compared to the literature, because of important syntactic and semantic shortcomings: compilation is not modular (editing a part might require recompiling everything) and the generated code can perform unexpected global synchronisations. In this paper, we find that these shortcomings are not mere coincidences. Rather, they stem from genuine new challenges posed by the integration of choreographies and functions: knowing which participants are involved in a choreography becomes nontrivial, and divergence in applications requires rethinking how to prove the semantic correctness of compilation. We present a novel theory of compilation for functional choreographies that overcomes these challenges, based on types and a careful design of the semantics of choreographies and distributed code. The result: a modular notion of compilation, which produces code that is deadlock-free and correct (it operationally corresponds to its source choreography).

Reasoning with Portuguese Word Embeddings

Authors: Luís Filipe Cunha, J. João Almeida, and Alberto Simões

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 104, 11th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies (SLATE 2022)


Abstract
Representing words with semantic distributions to create ML models is a widely used technique to perform Natural Language processing tasks. In this paper, we trained word embedding models with different types of Portuguese corpora, analyzing the influence of the models' parameterization, the corpora size, and domain. Then we validated each model with the classical evaluation methods available: four words analogies and measurement of the similarity of pairs of words. In addition to these methods, we proposed new alternative techniques to validate word embedding models, presenting new resources for this purpose. Finally, we discussed the obtained results and argued about some limitations of the word embedding models' evaluation methods.

Thoughts of a Post-Pandemic Higher Education in Information Systems and Technologies

Authors: Francini Hak, Jorge Oliveira e Sá, and Filipe Portela

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 102, Third International Computer Programming Education Conference (ICPEC 2022)


Abstract
In late 2019, a new class of coronavirus appeared in China that triggered a worldwide pandemic declared by the World Health Organization. Several businesses were affected and people had to adapt their social life to a virtual mode. Higher education institutions suffered from this sudden change, and had to adapt without any preparation or planning. After almost two years of carrying out activities in an online format, face-to-face activities in higher education have returned. This case study aims to analyze the performance of students in a new curricular unit of the Engineering and Management of Information Systems course at the School of Engineering of the University of Minho in Portugal. The study is applied to 142 students who entered the 1st year of the 2019/2020 school year and returned to face-to-face activities in the 3rd year of the 2021/2022 school year. Two questionnaires were applied, one at the beginning of the semester with 71 answers and another at the end of the semester with 39 answers. The main objective was to understand the students' feedback regarding the functioning of the classes, in which a great difficulty in teamwork was highlighted.

Optimal Coding Theorems in Time-Bounded Kolmogorov Complexity

Authors: Zhenjian Lu, Igor C. Oliveira, and Marius Zimand

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 229, 49th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2022)


Abstract
The classical coding theorem in Kolmogorov complexity states that if an n-bit string x is sampled with probability δ by an algorithm with prefix-free domain then 𝖪(x) ≤ log(1/δ) + O(1). In a recent work, Lu and Oliveira [Zhenjian Lu and Igor C. Oliveira, 2021] established an unconditional time-bounded version of this result, by showing that if x can be efficiently sampled with probability δ then rKt(x) = O(log(1/δ)) + O(log n), where rKt denotes the randomized analogue of Levin’s Kt complexity. Unfortunately, this result is often insufficient when transferring applications of the classical coding theorem to the time-bounded setting, as it achieves a O(log(1/δ)) bound instead of the information-theoretic optimal log(1/δ). Motivated by this discrepancy, we investigate optimal coding theorems in the time-bounded setting. Our main contributions can be summarised as follows. • Efficient coding theorem for rKt with a factor of 2. Addressing a question from [Zhenjian Lu and Igor C. Oliveira, 2021], we show that if x can be efficiently sampled with probability at least δ then rKt(x) ≤ (2 + o(1)) ⋅ log(1/δ) + O(log n). As in previous work, our coding theorem is efficient in the sense that it provides a polynomial-time probabilistic algorithm that, when given x, the code of the sampler, and δ, it outputs, with probability ≥ 0.99, a probabilistic representation of x that certifies this rKt complexity bound. • Optimality under a cryptographic assumption. Under a hypothesis about the security of cryptographic pseudorandom generators, we show that no efficient coding theorem can achieve a bound of the form rKt(x) ≤ (2 - o(1)) ⋅ log(1/δ) + poly(log n). Under a weaker assumption, we exhibit a gap between efficient coding theorems and existential coding theorems with near-optimal parameters. • Optimal coding theorem for pK^t and unconditional Antunes-Fortnow. We consider pK^t complexity [Halley Goldberg et al., 2022], a variant of rKt where the randomness is public and the time bound is fixed. We observe the existence of an optimal coding theorem for pK^t, and employ this result to establish an unconditional version of a theorem of Antunes and Fortnow [Luis Filipe Coelho Antunes and Lance Fortnow, 2009] which characterizes the worst-case running times of languages that are in average polynomial-time over all 𝖯-samplable distributions.
