mist: Refinements of Futures Past (Artifact)

Authors: Anish Tondwalkar, Matt Kolosick, and Ranjit Jhala

Published in: DARTS, Volume 7, Issue 2, Special Issue of the 35th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2021)


Abstract
mist is a tiny language for teaching and experimenting with refinement types, in the style of https://github.com/ucsd-progsys/liquidhaskell. We use it as a platform for experimenting with and as a demonstration of implicit refinement types as presented in the ECOOP21 paper Refinements of Futures Past: Higher-Order Specification with Implicit Refinement Types. We start with the parser and AST we use to teach our undergradute compilers class, and layer upon it a refinement type checker directly translated from the typing rules presented in that paper, which produces constraints that are solved with the liquid-fixpoint horn clause solver. We present source code and binaries for mist in a container image that includes installations of the competing tools we compare to.

Refinements of Futures Past: Higher-Order Specification with Implicit Refinement Types

Authors: Anish Tondwalkar, Matthew Kolosick, and Ranjit Jhala

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 194, 35th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2021)


Abstract
Refinement types decorate types with assertions that enable automatic verification. Like assertions, refinements are limited to binders that are in scope, and hence, cannot express higher-order specifications. Ghost variables circumvent this limitation but are prohibitively tedious to use as the programmer must divine and explicate their values at all call-sites. We introduce Implicit Refinement Types which turn ghost variables into implicit pair and function types, in a way that lets the refinement typechecker automatically synthesize their values at compile time. Implicit Refinement Types further take advantage of refinement type information, allowing them to be used as a lightweight verification tool, rather than merely as a technique to automate programming tasks. We evaluate the utility of Implicit Refinement Types by showing how they enable the modular specification and automatic verification of various higher-order examples including stateful protocols, access control, and resource usage.

Language Based Verification Tools for Functional Programs (Dagstuhl Seminar 16131)

Authors: Marco Gaboardi, Suresh Jagannathan, Ranjit Jhala, and Stephanie Weirich

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 6, Issue 3 (2016)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 16131 "Language Based Verification Tools for Functional Programs". This seminar is motivated by two converging trends in computing -- the increasing reliance on software has led to an increased interest in seeking formal, reliable means of ensuring that programs possess crucial correctness properties, and the dramatic increase in adoption of higher-order functional languages due to the web, multicore and "big data" revolutions. While the research community has studied the problem of language based verification for imperative and first-order programs for decades – yielding important ideas like Floyd-Hoare Logics, Abstract Interpretation, Model Checking, and Separation Logic and so on – it is only relatively recently, that proposals have emerged for language baseverification tools for functional and higher-order programs. These techniques include advanced type systems, contract systems, model checking and program analyses specially tailored to exploit the structure of functional languages. These proposals are from groups based in diverse research communities, attacking the problem from different angles, yielding techniques with complementary strengths. This seminar brought diverse set of researchers together so that we could: compare the strengths and limitations of different approaches, discuss ways to unify the complementary advantages of different techniques, both conceptually and in tools, share challenging open problems and application areas where verification may be most effective, identify novel ways of using verification techniques for other software engineering tasks such as code search or synthesis, and improve the pedagogy and hence adoption of such techniques.

Trust, but Verify: Two-Phase Typing for Dynamic Languages

Authors: Panagiotis Vekris, Benjamin Cosman, and Ranjit Jhala

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 37, 29th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2015)


Abstract
A key challenge when statically typing so-called dynamic languages is the ubiquity of value-based overloading, where a given function can dynamically reflect upon and behave according to the types of its arguments. Thus, to establish basic types, the analysis must reason precisely about values, but in the presence of higher-order functions and polymorphism, this reasoning itself can require basic types. In this paper we address this chicken-and-egg problem by introducing the framework of two-phased typing. The first "trust" phase performs classical, i.e. flow-, path- and value-insensitive type checking to assign basic types to various program expressions. When the check inevitably runs into "errors" due to value-insensitivity, it wraps problematic expressions with DEAD-casts, which explicate the trust obligations that must be discharged by the second phase. The second phase uses refinement typing, a flow- and path-sensitive analysis, that decorates the first phase's types with logical predicates to track value relationships and thereby verify the casts and establish other correctness properties for dynamically typed languages.

Scripting Languages and Frameworks: Analysis and Verification (Dagstuhl Seminar 14271)

Authors: Fritz Henglein, Ranjit Jhala, Shriram Krishnamurthi, and Peter Thiemann

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 4, Issue 6 (2015)


Abstract
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 14271 "Scripting Languages and Frameworks: Analysis and Verification". The seminar brought together a broad spectrum of researchers working on the semantics, analysis and verification of scripting languages. In addition to talks describing the latest problems and research on the key issues, split roughly into four overarching themes: semantics, types, analysis, contracts, languages, and security, the seminar had breakout sessions devoted to crosscutting topics that were of broad interest across the community, including, how to create shared analysis infrastructure, how to think about the semantics of contracts and blame, and the role of soundness in analyzing real world languages, as well as several "tutorial" sessions explaining various new tools and techniques.
